When we were there in June, tons of bushes had fruit, but all of it was far from ready. I guess that is normal for raspberries. Were the raspberries ripe for foraging?

So, we ended up at Coggeshall Farm & despite my fear of chickens, we had a blast. I wish we would have thought about Mt. Hope Farm too, great follow up to Coggeshall. Thanks for the tip, we'll plan on it next time!

We were told by the caretaker at Coggeshall that if you call ahead to let her know you're coming, she'll do some cooking with your kids while you're there. There is also a letterbox on the farm, for those who do that. We can't wait to go back next month for the Harvest Festival. We made this same trip two weeks ago, and our kids loved it.
