There's nothing sweeter than fresh fruit from right here in the Hudson Valley.

Nothing says summer like fresh fruit. While getting it from your local grocery store is always an option, there's something about picking your own fruit that makes it taste better.

Great news for us: several farms in the Hudson Valley have the option to pick your own fruit. Right now it's strawberry season. Mark your calendars for Saturday, June 22 when Saunderskill Farm in Accord will be hosting their annual Strawberry Festival.

Naturally, you'll have a ton of strawberry foods to try like strawberry shortcake, strawberry lemonade, strawberry milkshakes, strawberry scones and more.

Bring the kids! They'll have a great time with at the petting zoo, face painting and live music from Mr. OH.

Admission is free. For details about vendors or becoming a vendor reach out to Sierra at 845-389-1394 or email saunderskill.events@gmail.com.
