Title: Strawberries Are In Blossom On River Road
Post by: Henry on October 06, 2009, 01:11:18 PM

Walked into Orman Ovitt's back yard and sure enough, his strawberries are in blossom.
Could it be June already??

I agree dearon! I've been cold all summer and am not looking forward to snow flying at all!!!

 I wonder if sheltering those berries and putting a sun lamp on would ripen them? I could go for a fresh local berry! The season is waaay too short! :-)
