Gigantic Strawberries

by Karen/NoCA » Wed May 01, 2024 11:51 am

I picked up huge strawberries at the Farmer's Market on Saturday. The two I am enjoying this morning are 3 1/2 inches long and 7 inches in circumference at the stem end. They are sweet and very juicy. Has anyone else seen these huge berries?

7 inches? NEVER have I ever. Sure would like to though.

This sheds some light on the large strawberries. https://www.freshplaza.com/north-americ ... her-s-day/
That 7-inch circumference was at the stem end. It tapered down of course. Vender put smaller berries under the gigantic ones, and sure made a great presentation at his table.
