Betty Abbott positions an owl scarecrow in Abbie’s Acres Berry Farm east of Bemidji. She and her husband, Steve, left, have been in the U-Pick business for strawberries and raspberries for about four years. As is the case with other area U-Pick berry patches – Ter-Lee Gardens near Bagley and Mistic Berry Farm in Nebish – the strawberries are just beginning to ripen. Pioneer Photo/Monte Draper
