Last Day...Florida Strawberry Festival
http://www.flstrawberryfestival.com/index.html
Yes, ladies and gentleman, it's a strawberry festival. Plant City, Florida lies between Orlando and Tampa- less than an hour's drive from Orlando and a quick 25-minute trip from the Tampa side.
Plant City is known for it's strawberries- as Vidalia, Georgia is known for their onions, Cordele, Georgia's known for its watermelons and the fine folks in Chilton County, Alabama lay claim to the best peaches you'll ever find. And when a fruit's than dang good, you just have to have yourself a festival to celebrate said fruit.
The 2013 Florida Strawberry Festival opened on February 28th- and comes to an end tonight after hosting a wide range of talent over that 2-week span. From Chubby Checker to Casting Crowns, Foreigner to Alan Jackson and Bret Michaels to Blake Shelton, the festival has brought some quality entertainment to Hillsborough County in celebration of it's signature fruit.
All of that and the crowning of Kelsey Fry as 2013's Florida Strawberry Festival Queen makes for an event you'll regret you've missed. So head out to the festival today if you can...Blake Shelton takes the stage around 7:30!
303 North Lemon St.
Plant City, FL 33563-4706
If you miss it...well, only 353 days until the 2014 Florida Strawberry Festival!
