Today, the family spent the afternoon at the annual Plant City Strawberry Festival.  If you’ve never been, the festival is ranked among the Top 50 fairs in North America, and has been held (almost) each year since its inception in 1939.  The festival celebrates Plant City’s strawberry harvest and brings together a number of exhibits showcasing Plant City’s agriculture, livestock, horticulture, arts and crafts.

The festival runs from February 26 – March 8.  Tickets are $10 for Adults and $5 for Children.  Also, be sure to check out the nightly concerts.  The fair tends to attract a few big country names each year (sorry kids, if you didn’t catch Taylor Swift today, you’re out of luck).  For more information, please check out www.flstrawberryfestival.com.  You can also find the fair on Facebook and Twitter (@flstrawberryfst).
