#41 - Berries

Berries

Summer strawberries have reached the end of their season. U-pick for this fruit is now closed. The growth of blueberries goes well and we expect to open in the next 7 to 10 days for U-pick of this fruit. This season looks very promising for blueberries so far. For their part, the red and black raspberries are out and will be available at our booth at the market in Drummondville.
