Spring Cometh.....

and so did the Strawberry Truck..!

About this time every year a local farmer makes a run to Florida to pick up a semi load of strawberries....
The local radio station and newspaper run big adds that the Strawberry Truck is coming...
They set up shop in a parking lot...the brothers take the money and they have runners that take your berries to your car...
You buy the berries by the flat....there are 8 boxes in a flat...and a flat cost you $12.00...which comes out to $1.50 a box....
Such a Deal..!!
People line up to buy berries....so you have to get there early....
There's only one Strawberry Truck and when it's sold out...it's over...

The Strawberry Truck cameth.....now it's on to Spring...

..Go For Your Dreams..

  1. What a deal and what a coincidence. We just paid $11 a flat down here where they were picked. $1 to deliver them from Florida (good thing the gas is down)
    Good entry.
