Featured Recipe:
Chocolate Covered Strawberries
So easy and so good...

Ingredients:
- 16 ounces milk chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons shortening
- 1 pound fresh strawberries with leaves
- 8 oz white chocolate chips, optional

Directions:
1. Insert toothpicks into the tops of the strawberries.
2. In a double boiler, melt the milk chocolate and shortening, stirring occasionally until smooth. Holding them by the toothpicks, dip the strawberries into the chocolate mixture.
3. Turn the strawberries upside down and insert the toothpick into styrofoam for the chocolate to cool.
4. For a fancier look: Melt white chocolate chips, drizzle over the strawberries, and reinsert in styrofoam to cool.

It's Almost Time

Well, the berries are on and starting to ripen. We should be opening in a week or two.

Our Brunswick variety is going to be ready first but the All-Stars aren't far behind.

Planting Time Again

Well, it's that time of year to plant more berries for the coming seasons. It seems to have gotten here a lot sooner this time. The ground is worked, the hills are made and the weed paper is down.

Started planting on Weds. We ordered 1500 All-Stars and 1500 Brunswicks. There should be plenty of berries for everyone.


We hope to see you in June when we open the field.
