National Pick Strawberries Day on May 20 can be a day of fun for the whole family, but remember to bring sunscreen! This activity is amazing to introduce to younger children as a way of showing them the wonders of nature and botany as well as agriculture.

Right around late April and throughout the summer season strawberries start to grow and strawberry farms let you choose your own strawberries, like The Strawberry Patch in Napa. You might want to visit to see if they are open in 2021.

When harvesting strawberries, make sure to look for juicy and bright red strawberries so when you bring them home you can wash them and enjoy with the whole family or yourself!

National Pick Strawberries Day helps us get in touch with nature and lets us escape the inside of our house and once we get back, there are so many fun and delicious recipes to make. Why not check out these at Delish.com?

If you can’t wait to eat the fresh-picked berries, just wash and eat them, but be sure to have plenty of napkins handy. The best strawberries are usually the juiciest!
