Strawberry Feast at Glen Oak Ranch

Strawberry Feasts at Glen Oak Ranch

Nothing provides the taste of early summer better than strawberries. Kick-off this summer, before the official start of summer, at the Slow Food Russian River Strawberry Feasts.

There are 100+ varietals of strawberries, but only a few are commercially available. The worldwide Slow Food movement aims to preserve the biodiversity of foodstuffs and to support local farmers. And Slow Food Russian River aims to to do this for our regional treasure, the Gravenstein apple, for Heritage Turkeys, and, now, for varietals of strawberries.

Taste the difference between a number of lesser known, locally grown varietals and enjoy Sonoma County beverages and delicious strawberry treats, while learning about the what? and how? of strawberries while relaxing at beautiful Glen Oaks Ranch.
