Tips / Other

Today’s options for picnics and how to carry your delectable goodies to your favorite spot are unlimited. Want a picnic focused on wine and cheese? There is a basket for that. Need a basket for a beach trip? You’re covered.

Want to journey in the woods? No doubt a picnic basket backpack for that as well. Don’t let choosing the best picnic basket for you turn you into a basket case.

Some questions you must ask yourself before making your purchase include:

How many people will usually be in your picnic parlay? Will you be carrying wine and glasses? Do you want your plates strapped and how many will be in your bundle? Are you going the distance with your gear and do you need long-term, possible overnight use? Is weather an issue?

 

All of these questions and more can be answered with some simple research. Take a picnic and make some notes. No matter the choice, go play outside. Your basket will be by your side.
