Strawberries are the little princesses of our orchards! By the end of May, they make their much-anticipated return.
Sweet and full of flavor, strawberries are every child’s favorite treat – and they love getting their faces delightfully messy with them. In the canton of Fribourg, several local farmers offer self-pick strawberry fields. Despite the temptation of supermarkets, it's well worth waiting for the Swiss strawberry season. Why? First, because it’s important to respect nature’s rhythm – we can’t have everything all the time. Second, imported strawberries have a very poor carbon footprint. And finally, a strawberry only reveals its full flavor when it’s truly fresh!
