When I got the email with the invite to attend and cover the strawberry festival I was very happy. We love strawberries and for once we did not have to drive long hours to have some fun. We were ust a few minutes away.

The weather was perfect, not too hot not to windy, it is like if the weather gods new that the Strawberry festival was taken place at the city of Oxnard.

Last weekend at the annual California Strawberry festival everything was “berry” awesome.

The festival is a celebration for the local farmers that want to show case some of the best berries of the planet with some great activities such as live bands, rides for both kids and adults, crafts and off course a great arrangement of everything strawberry foods.

A great thing of the festival is that the money raised goes back to the local community to be able to support projects that benefit the farmers. So pretty much with your attendance you are supporting the farmers besides having fun.

Things to do a the festival

1. Enjoy the rides: At a very affordable price, only $1 dollar a ride you and your kids can enjoy the rides. Try to get on the early as lines can get longer as the festival gets crowded. There are a couple of activities that cost extra money such as the zip line and the Bungee Jumping 

2. Participate on the Strawberry Tart Toss: only a few bucks to throw the tarts and free to get tarts tossed at you.

3. Story time
