Berry Picking in the South-Central States
Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana each bring their own distinct berry tradition to the south-central region. Oklahoma has made the blackberry its official state fruit, and pick-your-own blackberry farms across the state draw enthusiastic crowds each June. Texas combines Hill Country blackberries with the strawberry farms of Poteet, the self-declared Strawberry Capital of Texas, while Louisiana's Ponchatoula strawberries are celebrated with an annual festival each April. The growing season across this region tends to run earlier than in northern states, with much of the berry harvest wrapped up before the most intense summer heat arrives.
