National Pick Strawberries Day is celebrated on May 20 of every year. With the summer season around the corner, the day invites you to go outside to pick fresh strawberries. Strawberries are very popular and rewarding plants to grow in the domestic environment, either for consumption or exhibition purposes. Within the Strawberry, we can observe all the goodness of hot summer days, cold summer nights, and adventures that we never forget. The best strawberries are the strawberries that are picked fresh and the day reminds us to get out and experience the wonders of picking fresh strawberries.

“Right now I just want to chill for a while. Take a hiatus from all the craziness. To clean my house, see my family. Just see some movies and pick some strawberries.” Lauren Ambrose
