Strawberry Fields Forever...
Well, maybe not forever, but I was remembering the Beatle's song as we
were picking more strawberries.
We can't eat them all!
The last 2
days we have picked almost a gallon per day. Linda has been cutting the
stems out of them, washing the berries, and putting them in small
containers and freezing the strawberries. There are still some on the
plants, but the plants aren't as full as they were, rain would probably
help.
I have the mum patch ready to plant, and the mums starts are
supposed to be delivered Wednesday. I hope it works out better than last
year. There was a delay last year in delivery, and we ended up getting a
double order, which was good, but we kept expecting them to arrive, and
it ended up being about a week late.
