The Ezine For Every Strawberry Lover!


February 8th, 2009

Issue #55


Hello,

We've had snow again, but still - spring is arriving fast in the Northern Hemisphere and now is the time to plan your gardening.

I'm already excited about all the new plants, I'll be buying soon and I decided to change my approach to growing strawberries: as my garden has a lot of shadow especially in late summer, the strawberries will now be grown on the balcony, where's a lot more sunshine and where I can pick them easier :-)

I will report about the results. And by the way, if you don't have a garden, you can still grow your own strawberries on your balcony. They just don't compare to the commercial ones in taste!

Kitchen Tip

How to keep strawberries fresh
submitted by Helen from Texas

When I buy strawberries I come home and put them in egg cartons in the fridge. They keep for days longer.
