News 10 stopped in at Blann's Berries in northern Knox County where staffers say this time of year is like the unofficial start to summer produce season.
"It's one of the first fruits of the season, and it just seems like people are very anxious to get strawberries and always enjoy strawberries early in the spring season and here in the summer," described Jeff Blann, Blann Farms owner.
Farm experts say it's not just the berries that bring people out.
