The field mice may have stolen most of the ripe ones, but they left me just enough to make a little jar of preserves.

My problem with strawberries is slugs and snails. I refer to my strawberries as lgbt/gay as I am growing them in pink pots. So far we have only had a max of 5 … just watered them. Picking just before lunch.
Viva strawberries and cremé … oh yum! YabYum for Tantrists … :)
Ah yes, the struggle is real. Millipedes are my main strawberry nemesis here. It’s always so disheartening when a strawberry looks absolutely perfect… and then you pick it and come to find a hole on the underside where the millepedes have hollowed the whole damn thing out. Haha, the little monsters.
