One of the most amazing things about the Girls U-pick is when you drive up to the location, it looks like just a modest store front in an old strip shopping center in western Delray Beach. You walk in thru the doors and see tons of yummy goods for sale from prepackaged jams, honey, candies, etc. to the bakery case and ice cream counters. Hung all about you are bits from the past that bring a warm nostalgic feel to the place. When you make your way out thru the store, pick up a basket and a pair of scissors to start picking.

Daggerwing Nature Center in western Boca Raton is a beautiful nature center with trails and observation tower behind. Become acquainted with the fauna and wildlife of South Florida while taking a walk along the boardwalk. Bring sun protection as the majority of the trail is not shaded at all. The observation tower is a fun climb but, like all wooden towers, can sway a bit in a breeze so if you're at all afraid of heights, skip it.
