Get ready, y’all, because strawberry season is here! Strawberries are just one of the many fruits that grow well down here in Louisiana, and springtime means they’ll be ripe for the picking. Mrs. Heather’s is just a short drive from the city and it’s one of the best farms near New Orleans for picking your own strawberries.

There’s nothing better than the sweet taste of a Louisiana strawberry.
