Here is a photo of our first strawberry of the season.  Strawberry plants are very resilient.  They can grow and bear fruit from a hanging planter or if you decide to just plant it straight on the ground.  It requires warm weather and plenty of sunlight.  You may have heard of the overabundant amount of strawberries that farmers all over the US have harvested this season.  (Record sale prices are posted all over the supermarkets).  This is a great opportunity to learn how to make your own jars of strawberry preserves.
