Hi Mana,

Sounds like fun for everyone. As you may know, we have one here too in OC, it's in Garden Grove. It's been going on since I was a kid. Sorry to say we've lost most of our strawberry fields and orange groves in our area. Luckily for you that Ventura County still has a wealth of agriculture.

Mana-- I swear I was STRONGLY considering coming out for this, hoping to meet you face-to-face...  But my husband and I have event tickets this weekend...we've got really good seats for a baseball game.  Actually, we are the guests of somebody else, so there you go.  Next time!

Michelle, I know it gets extremely crowded, but I hope to see you there.

Teri, Festivals and shopping mix together add eating to that as well, I can't complain. :0)

Lynda, I know what you are talking about. Every time a new development goes up on our strawberry fields or citrus groves a lot of anger is raised in the community.

Cyndee, I had no idea Florida grew strawberries. Now we have to compete. LOL

Teri, It is. I wish I could share this event with you.

Karen, That would have been awesome. Please try to come out for our other festivals I would love to meet you. Have fun at your baseball game.
