Strawberry Delight

The aroma of perfectly ripe berries, and the sweet flavour explosion when you bite into a juicy berry… there are few things as exhilarating for strawberry lovers.
For us in Eastern Ontario, it’s an excruciating wait before the local strawberries are ripe and ready to pick and buy. And the season is so short, usually mid-May to late June.
Sure, strawberries from California, Mexico and other locales are available year round, and more recently, mega-greenhouses in Southwest Ontario and Quebec have extended the strawberry season.
But there’s something magical about local, freshly picked, field grown, sun ripened strawberries.
