Actually I live within spittin distance of Amish country and they do the growing! As I have gotten older I go out and watch them pick and buy off of them. Cheating I know but I know but I just can't stoop that long any more.

Ah!
I've been buying mine locally,too. Chickens ate all the berries in my garden. Next year,the strawberries will be in a pyramid away from the areas chickens can go.
