Farmers Market Berries

Farmers market berries are a tier above traditional clamshell berries. Typically, berries are picked just as they reach ripeness and cooled after picking to halt the ripening process. In a farmers market berry, they are harvested fully ripe and packed in open pints while still in the field. This lends to a juicier, riper, sweeter berry- the same quality you would find at a farmers market.
