Good crop this year. Just picked 5 quarts which will be gone quick. I like them over shortbread with whip cream left sitting in the fridge for about 6 hrs then devoured.
My bro is actually allergic to them poor guy.

My brother goes to produce auctions close to Amish country and buys multiple quarts at a time and always sells me a few of them. I have about 5 or 6 plants here and just had a few off of them yesterday. My dad adds sugar to his when he eats them. Crazy.

Mom just picked a few quarts yesterday. Funny how they taste so much better than the one you buy in the store.

I use sugar and lemon juice to macerate Strawberries before I eat them.bigdaddy2003;804285 wrote:My brother goes to produce auctions close to Amish country and buys multiple quarts at a time and always sells me a few of them.

Not all jacked up with chemicals and artificial colors to make them look more "pretty." It's the same thing with beef. Typically it won't look that bright red.

I just like mine right off the plant. I never put sugar on fruit. Just not my style.
