Last Saturday morning my hubby, my mom and I drove out to Cabot to Holland Bottom Farms. They had big, red, ripe, and juicy strawberries galore! At the time we were there, there was a line 30-40 people deep waiting on the luscious berries. As the workers picked and loaded the berries on the van for the haul to the stand, they were immediately boxed and sold. It was fun to see. From the website: Strawberry season normally begins around the 1st of April (depending on the weather conditions) and lasts till June 1. The berries are sold pre-picked at Holland Bottom Farm Produce Stand (Hwy 321) and are picked fresh every day. From June 1 and throughout the summer, we grow and sell summer fruits and vegetables including peaches (7 to 8 varieties), sweet onions, okra, squash, tomatoes, cucumbers, fresh purple hull peas, sweet corn, peppers, melons, blueberries, and blackberries. We also have a large fireworks tent set up each year to celebrate the 4th of July holiday. Starting this fall, we are going all out with a wide array of fall décor, including all kinds of ornamental pumpkins, unique gourds, mums, straw, and much more.
