Raspberries and blueberries are peaking in southern and central Minnesota as the strawberry season gets going up north.

The cold, wet spring delayed the growing season, but the Minnesota Grown program says consumers can expect a variety of berries ready to be picked and enjoyed throughout the state this month.

On the map is a selection of five berry farms around the state. For a full list, check out the Minnesota Department of Agriculture. Remember to check with the farm before going to make sure they're open.
