Ponchatoula is known as “America’s Antique City” and the “Strawberry Capital of the World” along with being famous for their Strawberry Festival. For many of us Ponchatoula is also popular for Berry Town Produce which is a great family business that offers a great selection of local and regional food products. Some of Berry Town's more popular items include their many varieties of fruit wine which include strawberry, blueberry, blackberry and many others. You also get quite a selection of many jams and jellies as well. Berry Town Produce is certainly one of the spots you should stop and visit when doing a tour of Ponchatoula, LA. Overall this is a cool little store that has some things that should be of interest to most folks.

The bell peppers were 90percent breadcrumbs, 10 percent meat! For 20.00 dollars, I expected meaty bell peppers! The Only good thing was the strawberries!!! I will be contacting the...
