Some Really Good-Looking Produce

Known For Apples, Holmberg's a Good Place to Buy Any Produce

The Ledyard Farmers Market opened last week. I didn't go, but I was looking for some fresh produce. I thought Holmberg's might be getting ready some "pick-your-own" strawberries, but a guy working on a tractor up there told me their earliest pick-your-own is blueberries in July. He sent me down to the store.

"Everything's late, compared to last year," said Diane Holmberg, who was working at the store. The store looked amazing. If I'd ever been in there, it was a long time ago. I asked Diane if I could take some pictures. She said sure, and even offered one of their beautiful native tomatoes, free of charge. 

This is what I came up with. I forgot to take my tomato, but I'll be back.
