Since you’re here, you probably want some more details. Some booths take credit cards, but not all of them. We guarantee that there will be no shortage of strawberry shortcake… and strawberry everything at the festival, so come hungry! Bring cash too since you’ll need it to purchase the strawberry shortcake and other items.

“We’re excited about this year’s event and look forward to sharing in the celebration of the shortcake dessert that has come to make us so successful!” “It points to the recent win we achieved in naming strawberry shortcake as Florida’s official dessert as we’re a little partial to the berry,” said President Paul Davis. And there’s a BIG story behind this year’s theme name… Restoration Rose is not a location-it's a state of mind.The 88th Annual Florida Strawberry Festival is back in 2023, kicking off on March 2 through March 12. At the peak of the season the dahlias begin to bloom joined thereafter by the heirloom mums, both of which bloom until the first frost.įloral designers are always welcome to visit and relax creekside under 100 year old Tulip Poplar trees or find a private spot near the little woodland waterfall.

Throughout summer, uncommon annual and perennial flowers, vines, hydrangea, and of course, the ROSES create an Impressionistic riot of color and scent. As spring fades and summer begins, the organic herbs, scented geranium, heirloom lilies, clematis and once blooming old roses burst with bloom and fragrance.

Spring begins with tulips, narcissi, peonies, poppies, iris and blooming fruit trees and shrubs. In our creekside fields, designers will discover botanicals for the vase which are unique, uncommon, and sometimes downright unusual-but always beautiful. Than a garden but more akin to a garden than a farm, Restoration Rose organically and sustainably grows fragrant antique, vintage and modern garden roses in addition to a supporting cast of flora.
