Celebrating the Sweet Strawberries of Spring
In pancakes at breakfast, as pre-
serves on bread at lunch, sliced
over a salad for dinner and atop
shortcake for dessert, the straw
berry works overtime!
My great-grandfather kept a
strawberry patch of local acclaim in
a sunny corner spot. In my mind, he
bends low behind a white picket
fence, wearing dusty dungarees and
a buttoned-up shirt. His hands are
gnarled with arthritis but he tends
the plants with deftness. Some per-
feet day in late spring, he brushes
soil from the first berry of the season,
lifting it to the sun for visual inspec-
lion, then pop! It stains his lips as he
begins the ultimate flavor test.

The Oregon Strawberry
Sweeter. Redder. Simply Better.
Oregon’s 120-year history in the
strawberry industry has earned
Oregon the title of third largest pro
ducer of strawberries in the United
States.
Strawberries have been known
since the time of the Greeks and
Romans. Wild American berries and
French strawberries were crossbred
as early as 1624. Commercial straw
berry growing began in America
about 18(H) near the largest eastern
cities. Strawberries moved west
with the pioneers and were report
edly grown near Vancouver, Wash
ington at the Hudson Bay Post in
1836.
Red, juicy and conically shaped,
the strawberry is a member of the
rose family and has grown wild for
centuries. Strawberries are the only
fruit with seeds on the outside.
Strawberries vary in size, shape and
color (some are off-white or yellow
ish). In general, the flavor of the
smaller berries is better than the
larger varieties.
How to store: Do not wash straw
berries until ready to use. Store
(preferably in a single layer on a
paper towel) in a moisture proof
contained in the refrigerator for 2-3
days.
Health Benefits; Numerous stud
ies have shown the importance of
antioxidant activity and potential
health benefits derived from antho-
cyanins, which give berries their
rich color.
