It's Blueberry Season Print E-mail
Thursday, 17 July 2008

Strawberries have come and gone all too quick, but blueberries now are hitting their prime. Here is a new place to get them, at a good price, if you don't already have a tried-and-true source:

 The Blueberry Place, 44 Hope Street in Seekonk, is open for business now through mid- to late-August.  Hours are Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, 8:30 AM to noon and 4:00 PM to dusk. Berries are $2 a pound pick your own; $1.90 seniors over 65.  Pre-picked are $3 a pint.  This is an opportunity to support local agriculture!

From Providence, drive east on Rte. 44 (Taunton Ave).  Just past Leonard’s Antiques, turn left onto Hope St. and go to the third house on left.

You can find dozens of other pick-your-own sites around the state at the Farm Fresh Web site
