Celebrate National Pick Strawberries Day with a fresh, juicy, and sweet treat! Enjoy picking your own strawberries outdoors or find them at a local market.
Get ready to celebrate National Pick Strawberries Day on May 20! This day has been celebrated in the United States since the early 1950s, when it first began as a way to commemorate picking fresh strawberries. Whether you have your own strawberry patch or visit a local farm, this is a great time of year to enjoy sweet and juicy strawberries plucked straight from the vine. So get out there and pick some berries for yourself or someone special!
Head out to a local farm and pick your own strawberries. It's a great way to get in touch with nature, enjoy the fresh air, while also getting some yummy fruits. Don't forget to bring a bucket or basket.
Make an ice cream base and add in chopped strawberries for some added sweetness and flavor. You can also make a strawberry milkshake or smoothie.
Find a delicious recipe online or from a cookbook and bake a strawberry cake. Top it off with some cream cheese frosting for the perfect dessert.
Invite your friends over for a strawberry themed party with strawberry desserts, drinks, decorations and more! You can even have a “pick your own” activity where you provide containers and let everyone pick their own strawberries.
Making jam is easier than you think! All you need are strawberries, sugar, lemon juice, pectin, and some jars to store it in. Enjoy this sweet treat all year round on toast or even as an ice cream topping!
Not only are strawberries sweet, juicy and delicious, but they're also filled with vitamins and minerals like vitamin C, potassium, folate and fiber. They make a wonderful snack on their own, or can be used in smoothies, salads, desserts and more!
Heading to the strawberry patch is an activity the whole family can enjoy! You get to spend some quality time outdoors in the fresh air while showing off your picking skills - it's great for everyone from kids to adults. Plus, you get to fill up a basket with fresh strawberries at the end of the day!
By taking a trip to your local strawberry farm to pick your own strawberries, you're supporting small businesses in your community. Not only that, but you're also getting top quality produce that has been sustainably grown with care by passionate farmers who take pride in what they do!
