When I was growing up there was one empty lot on the block where we lived. I discovered there were wild strawberries growing there. It was MY secret! So disappointed some years later when someone built on the lot. Never had any as nice as those.

I would make a pie!

Yummy

Yummy. Not sure it would have lasted long enough to take pictures

I go strawberry picking every year at this time. I`ve been picking in the same field now for many years. It is close to where our camp is. Welll two yrs ago a guy bought the land where i go. He didn`t seem to like the fact i was picking in his field last yr...i didn`t know it was sold. Well this year he mowed the grass ...just before the berries came out...and this is way in the bush....and he really doesn`t do anything in this field...nor with the grass he cut...soooo.....now i have to find new places to pick...bummer!!!!

i`ve actually never made a pie with field strawberries, thy are are so sweet, i just make jam.

Ditto! I love fresh strawberries to make a shortcake.

I was surprised to learn that wild strawberry vines grow all over the city of Portland, OR. Love them. My favorite fruit.

They are big for wild ones. They sure look good!

I know....thy are monster wild strawberries....never imagined thy could get so big!!!
