Midwest Berry Picking
The Midwest's berry season centers on strawberries and raspberries in June and July, with Michigan standing out as one of the country's leading blueberry producers thanks to the moderating influence of Lake Michigan on its western counties. Wisconsin contributes a dramatically different specialty in its cranberry marshes, which produce the majority of the nation's cranberry crop and put on a striking visual display during the fall flood-harvest. Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, and the Dakotas all support smaller-scale strawberry, raspberry, and blackberry farms, many of which share land with the region's well-known fall apple orchards.
