Did you know strawberries are the only fruit with their seeds on the outside of their skin? Did you know strawberries are in high in Vitamin C and can be a delicious way to meet your dietary goals of getting plenty of servings of fresh fruits and vegetables? Did you know strawberries are grown in every single state and that we have a large commercial strawberry operation in Etowah County, Norris Farms?
