Festivalgoers will find Harris Seafood at the entrance of the Ponchatoula Strawberry Festival, but they will also find Harris Farm strawberries.
“I’ve sold strawberries for all of the Ponchatoula farmers and some of the Springfield farmers, and six years ago, I decided to take a leap of faith and start farming,” Harris Farm owner Trey Harris said.
Harris grew his farm from nearly 60,000 plants to nearly 150,000 plants, about 10 acres, and you can find Harris’ strawberries at all the Rouses locations, as well as the Ponchatoula Strawberry Festival.
