Well, it doesn't look like a strawberry




Strawberries have started to make their debut at farmers' markets around New Jersey.  Despite the fact that stores have been shipping them in from the west coast for months now, it is time to fill up.  I would imagine that many people do not actually know what a strawberry plant looks like, though (yes, they come from a plant, not a plastic container). These are the ones I've got at home...they are very easy to grow.  They come back year after year and do their own thing; I just throw on some compost or shredded leaves in the fall.
