Blaise & Philomena LOVE berry season! Can't you tell? |
For us, local blackberries come and go fast, especially with such a dry summer. I am happy to report that Health Foods Unlimited in Dayton, Ohio now has local organically grown blackberries for $2.25 a pint. We buy as much as our budget allows and freeze them for later consumption throughout the remainder of the summer. You can check in your area for local farmers and farmers markets that grow and sell berries in your area here.
We rarely use sunscreen and limit it to occasions where we are out for hours on end at the water park. If you are going to use sunscreen, they are not all created equal. In fact, Dr. Axe reports that 75% of them are toxic! But just in case you do happened to get burnt, here is a natural treatment to help it heal.
