Dennis Lewer, owner of Lakeview Berry Farm in Mosinee, is marveling at his crop.
Lakeview specializes in a variety of raspberries and grow other fruits like strawberries, currants and blueberries.
The raspberries will be ready sooner than ever before because of the warm spring.
"The raspberries started a month early and they've been blossoming for a month already, we've just never had a year like this," Lewer said.
He says it could be a record year for sales, or detrimiental... and it's still too early to tell.
Normally raspberries aren't ready until July. His will be ready to harvest mid-June.
But if people don't realize the fruit is ready, he fears they won't be sold.
More rain is still necessary to keep his crops ahead of schedule.
