May 20: Enjoy Fun Activities and Fresh Treats on Pick Strawberries Day
Spring marks the end of the doldrums of winter and nothing celebrates it better than fresh strawberries! Not only are strawberries a favorite fruit with its mix of sweet and tangy, but harvesting your own fruit is a satisfaction in of itself. This day is about getting outside and enjoying the outdoors as much as it is about the strawberries.
Strawberries are a member of the rose family and were
first grown domestically in France during the late
18th century. Before that time,
wild strawberries were a favorite and harvested from surrounding
forests. Low in fat and calories with good levels of fiber, folic
acid, and potassium, strawberries are a great addition to dishes
including salads and desserts. After working outside to harvest
your strawberries, indulge in these strawberry online food recipes
from our Dishfolio food bloggers to make good use of your
stash!
