Description

Drive up and say hello to Mary Burr, who's been selling strawberries, vegetables, milkshakes, and jams at the same location for more than 40 years. Here you'll find baskets of red, ripe strawberries ($8.50), cabbages, squashes the size of a small terriers, and homemade jams and jellies. Ever the entrepreneur, Mary and her crew also sell fresh orchids, honey, cut flowers, and potted herbs. If it grows in Redland, Mary sells it. Adjacent to the produce stand is a milkshake shack selling fresh strawberry milkshakes and sundaes ($4-$5). The place is busiest during weekends, filled with Miami families eager to show children a world apart from the suburban sprawl in which they live. Though other stands in the area also sell milkshakes, Mary's crew will tell you Burr's is the first and the best.
