Berries are abundant at the Adair Farmers Market today



2014-06-24 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Danny & Debbie Burris, D & D Longview Farm, Gradyville, KY have a great crop of berries coming in; they're at the Adair Farmers Market, 409 Fairground Street, Columbia, KY today. Those berries which look a bit like red grapes are gooseberries. These were at FM2, and were very sweet, but as the days of the season pass, gooseberries generally get sweeter and sweeter - today's are the sweetest yet. It's a good time visit the market, today is "Taste of Adair" day, with lots of samples. The market is open from 2pm-6pmCT today.
