how did i end up swimming in strawberries every other day?

Every other day, I’m hauling in baskets loaded with strawberries—like, six to ten pounds at a time. It’s wild. I never thought my backyard would turn into a berry jackpot, but here we are. The secret? I started mulching with straw and watering early in the morning. The plants love it. I also snip off any runners that try to escape, so all the energy goes into making fruit. It’s become a routine I actually look forward to. There’s something super satisfying about picking fruit you grew yourself. Plus, my freezer is now packed with strawberries for smoothies and desserts. If you’re thinking about starting a garden, strawberries are way more rewarding than I expected. Just be ready to share with friends, because you’ll have more than you can eat! #gardening #strawberries #backyardharvest
