Is there anything in this world as good as a red-ripe strawberry plucked from the vine? Well, soon it will be that time. Strawberries are coming into season.
Liberty Mills Farm near Somerset has a nice patch of strawberries and they open their doors to avid pickers each spring.
“Our strawberry plants are busy growing, flowering and producing small green berries,” they say, “And it won’t be long until we see and taste the first red, ripe, juicy strawberry in the Liberty Mills Farm strawberry patch.”
The Annual Strawberry Fest at Liberty Mills is scheduled for Saturday, May 25th and will feature strawberry ice cream sundaes, strawberry fudge, strawberry salsa, root beer floats and much more.
Liberty says that their berries start ripening slowly, and then before you know it, they have a field full and ready for you pick. Check the website at LibertmillsFarm.com for current picking conditions, directions or to sign up for their email list and be the first to know when the patch is open.
