And there are more varieties of homegrown....not the same old, same old, chunky grocery strawberries.
And strawberries become a seasonal celebration. In season you’ll have strawberry fests, shortcake contests, etc.
Out of season you’ll pay out the nose for the actual cost of production....as it should be.
When I was a kid (ages long ago), we ate frozen sweetened strawberries. They were Safeway Bel Air house brand, and came frozen in a little box that had to be thawed out. There weren't boxes and boxes of fresh strawberries at the grocery store all the time like there are now.
