"Thanks" to Global Warming, our local strawberries are almost four weeks early from when they were ready in 1985.

Red all the way through. Driscolls still are red on the outside and white on the inside.

We have 2 strawberry farms nearby. One is right next to my neighborhood, the other is about 5 minutes away. The one nearby was jam packed when we went Sat. so we went to the one further away. Lots to pick, and not crowded. I'm sharing with the critters in my yard
