Please visit your local farmers market and support them.

Strawberries may be kept fresh in the refrigerator for three or more days, depending upon the initial quality of the berry. After a few days in storage,

however, the fruit looses its bright color and fresh flavor and tend to shrivel.

Did you know?

Always rinse strawberries with hulls on, so berries do not get water logged or lose any vitamin content.
