Strawberry picking has become one of my favorite family activities and I love trying out new farms with the kids each year! Some of the farms have amazing bakeries where you can find strawberry pie, muffins and my favorite, strawberry lemonade! There is nothing like spending the day in the sun picking berries and then grabbing a cold glass of strawberry lemonade!
Strawberry season usually starts in early to mid June and lasts until the first week of July.
