Strawberries ... even in July
Agriculture is far different now from what it was when James Whitcomb Riley wrote "Knee-Deep in June." That was around 1883. More than a century later we can buy strawberries at almost any time of the year. These aren't local strawberries but they will be used and enjoyed as food and the strawberry sepals will be used for art work.
"Long about knee-deep in June,
'Bout the time strawberries melts
On the vine."
James Whitcomb Riley
