Ohiofarmgirl's Adventures in The Good Land is largely a fish out of water tale about how I eventually found my footing on a small farm in an Amish town. We are a mostly organic, somewhat self sufficient, sustainable farm in Ohio. There's action and adventure and I'll always tell you the truth about farming.

Strawberries.

Yep. Summer is definitely here.


I picked these beautiful berries this morning. What a great day! This is from the patch a planted a while ago. The plants are doing terrific despite the fact that I haven't done one thing to take care of them. I'd say that flat of plants was a great purchase.

I'll go out in the little bit and pick the rest of the ripe ones. I have a feeling that there is going to be pie involved today.

Happy Saturday everyone!

I'm jealous - we are finally able to plant our garden this weekend and you are already harvesting!

I keep wanting to plant strawberries, but I just can't find space for them, sigh.....

I had strawberries that I didn't take care of too and they did well and spread but finally stopped producing after several years :( and all the ones I have planted since then haven't done well.

Happy Saturday to you as well. Love those berries. I still have one plant that over wintered so will see if anything comes of it.

Oh for the space! Any rhubarb? Strawberry rhubarb pie is so good.

Those are beautiful berries! And I can't believe that you haven't put much work into your patch. I just came across your blog and have been enjoying reading back through some posts. "The Truth about Farming" hit close to home, it really is the truth!
