February is Fabulous Florida Strawberry Month!
Strawberries in February? You bet your snow boots! Though it’s cold and dreary in many parts of the country, February is fabulous in Florida where strawberry growers are harvesting their winter crop and shipping handpicked fruit to key markets. Strawberries dipped in chocolate or strawberry laced sparkling wine are a Valentine’s Day delight. Consider using the ripe, luscious berry in a variety of recipes from salads to shortbread. For more information go to the Florida Strawberry Growers Association.
