Great out door activity while keeping social distance. After staying home for over two months, we can’t wait to go out when the government announced to slowly opening up the society. We took advantage of the opening and went to Temecula Berry Farm to get some out door activities while still staying safe. This farm is not too far a drive from LA. It took us only an hour to get to this place. The farm has safety in place to protect the visitors. All their workers there wore masks and provided hand washing station at the exit. The Farm also provided free parking with plenty of spaces. Since the farm is very big, we were able to keep our distance from other visitors. For picking the your own blue berries, the farm charged $5 for a small basket and $10 for a larger one. We were so excited for our first outing since the lock down. Seeing so many lie berries hanging from the short trees, we didn’t know where to begin as we picked whatever came into our views first. We ended up picking a lot of raw ones. At the end, we learned that we have to look under trees to pick the deep blue ripe berries. But who cares, we were just thrilled to get out of the house. We did brought back a full bucket of blue berries for our breakfast the next day.

I was first introduced to this winery thanks to Vineyard limousine and party bus who we hired to drive us around for my mom‘s 75th birthday. This was the third stop for our day and it turns out to be the most delicious stop because not only did they offer great wine but they had a delicious barbecue. The thing I loved about this winery is that it really is family-friendly in that It has animals like horses and goats, it has a snack bar for the kids, it has a dance floor with a great band and it even had a mechanical bull on the night that we were there. So the two kids in our group ages 14 and seven both had a lot of fun exploring the grounds. The night that we were there, I believe there was a wedding, there was our birthday party, there may have been a dance going on for school, but because they have so many different zones and buildings and they did such a great job of segmenting all of the events nobody felt overcrowded and nobody felt like anybody was barging into their event. The food was delicious. A well-rounded meal with roasted chicken, corn and mashed potatoes +2 bottles of wine per table so we got four bottles total. We also brought a cake but they also had a general store where you could buy things in addition to that little snack bar. The only downside is that there was only two bathrooms available (because the others were inside the building with the school dance or whatever private event) so there was a little bit of a line. Still, I would highly recommend this spot for families and highly recommend the limo company I mentioned above because they purchased everything in advance for us so there was no waiting in line and they were parked super convenient so when we were done it was just a short walk to the van. #VisitTemecula #TemeculaWineCountry #MakesMeWander
