Festival General Manager Paul Davis said everyone has been working hard to get the festival grounds ready for another successful 11-day run.
“The Florida Strawberry Festival is family entertainment where patrons get tremendous value for their entertainment dollar,” Davis said. “We are looking for this year to be a great year at the festival.”
