  I absolutely love growing or buying in season produce that I can preserve and use all year long. There’s nothing quite like the flavor of fresh, in season strawberries which is why I freeze them in the spring for making smoothies the rest of the year. The kids and I LOVE to go pick fresh strawberries every spring and luckily, berries are one of the easiest things to freeze, so I’m excited to share with you how to do that today.

  7. I have frozen them From Leisure Farm and I eat them just like fresh berries. Just don't let them thaw 100%. Eat them either frozen or about 75% thawed
