🍓 U-Pick Strawberry Heaven in Chino Hills! $5 for an Empty Box 🌱
Best. Day. Ever. for my 2+ year-old at Family Farms (Chino, CA)! Memorial Day weekend = sunshine, strawberries, and muddy adventures (more on that later 😅). 📍 Location: Family Farms, Chino 💰 Deal Alert: $5 for an empty box + all the strawberries you can pick! Why We Loved It: ✅ Juicy, sun-ripened strawberries (technically no eating in the field, but... oops 😉) ✅ Farm education: Kids learn how strawberries grow from farmer uncles 👨🌾—way cooler than books! My toddler now proudly spots "baby strawberries" (and knows not to pick them yet!). ✅ Instagram gold: Red berries + blue skies = instant aesthetic. Pro tip: Wear pastels! 📸 ✅ Bonus finds: Organic veggies for sale (scored 3 giant bags for $30—still munching on that cauliflower 🥦). 📌 Pro Tips: ⏰ Go early—beat the crowd & heat 🧺 Bring a cute basket (farm provides plastic boxes, but aesthetics matter!) ☀️ Sunscreen is mandatory (California sun don’t play) 👟 Expect messes (my kid fully committed to the mud-pit experience 🫠) 💭 Parenting Win: When my toddler squished his first few berries, we practiced gentle picking ("Pinch the stem, swoop!"). His proud grin after mastering it? Priceless. ✨ The Lesson: Let kids explore within boundaries—mistakes = growth! 🔍 More Kid-Tested Adventures? I’m all about old-school fun (catching tadpoles, fireflies—send recs!). #SoCalKids #StrawberryPicking #MomLife #FarmLife #ToddlerApproved #NatureEducation #CaliforniaFarmers
