June 4th, 2016 is a date that will always be burned in my mind. It was our FIRST Upick and it was AMAZING. The two biggest surprises were:
- we expected 2,000 people and had 8,000
- We still had lavender left!!!
The attendees were great and our families and volunteers were outstanding. Thank you to everyone!
We have big plans for Upick in 2017 and we’ll have more Upick days. Watch our website or Facebook page for updates next year!
