Enter by June 14

Want to be one of those lucky contestants, making strawberries the center of attention in your favorite dish? Sweet or savory, baked, mixed, or blended, we just need an idea of what you plan to make. The ten most interesting, delightful, and strawberry-starring dishes will be chosen to compete on the 23rd. Contestants will be notified by email on June 15th if they are selected to compete.

The Contest: June 23rd

On June 23rd, ten selected contestants will get to pick up a flat of fresh-picked (that morning!) strawberries to take home and make into a wow-worthy dish starring that special summer fruit, the local strawberry. (If your dish takes more than a day, arrangements can be made for earlier pick up). Our panel of local food personalities will taste each dish and choose winner.
