STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL, CASSIBLE, SYRACUSA


Don and I went down to Cassible to see the Strawberry Festival held at the horse track just outside of town .... it wasn't what we expected .... only a couple of farmers selling strawberries ... mostly it was food vendors and services (solar panels, wood burning ovens, and the like). We were there around noon-time, there was a puppet show that evening that could have been interesting ... but it was too long to wait.


Strawberry beer tent .....
... fresh coconut for the kids (kids around here love to eat wedges of coconut ... most events will have at least one vendor selling coconut -- as you see here, it is kept damp in a water fountain) ......... a sign I liked for a small cheese farmer ... happy cows, sheep and goats ...

... the two cases of strawberries we bought ... one for us and one for our landlords ...
