If you haven’t gotten your hands on Hood strawberries this year, your time is quickly coming to a close—but don’t despair ⬇️ ✨️⁠ ⁠ The Finnito strawberry, which has been in development for years but was only given its name this year, should start reaching peak ripeness in the next few days, extending the local u-pick strawberry season a couple weeks longer. ⁠ ⁠ Unlike Hoods, they’re large, bright red, and last for several days in the fridge. Some have described them as having a sweet, pineapple-like flavor. ⁠ ⁠ There are only a few places in the area to find Finnitos, including:⁠ ⁠ 🍓Columbia Farms on Sauvie Island⁠ 🍓Hoffman Farms in Beaverton⁠ ⁠ Full story by Katherine Chew Hamilton at the link in bio. ⁠ ⁠ #portland #strawberries #pdx #strawberry
