It's berry pickin' time

It's strawberry picking time at Spectrum Farms (pictured) and Farm LoLa, which also has lots of honeyberries for the picking. Siberian honeyberries have the same faded blue color as blueberries but are shaped like deflated footballs. Think "blueberry mixed with a SweeTARTS (candy)," said farmer Jason Amundsen. Spectrum Farms owner Steve Schulstrom said he expects another couple weeks of strawberry picking, but not every day. Call the Spectrum hotline at 218-389-6265 and LoLa at 218-400-4950 for picking updates.
