Strawberry season is in full swing! 🍓 They are my all-time favorite fruit, so once June hits I’m hitting up all the local farm stands to stock up. I also got some local berries in my CSA box this week, so I made some jam. Nothing beats fresh, homemade jam.

My favorite way to enjoy strawberries is strawberry shortcake or homemade jam on toast! Share your fave way to enjoy these delicious berries in the comments below ⬇️
