FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Some of the questions we get are: 1. When are the strawberries going to be ripe? Strawberries are very weather dependent. Generally they are picked by the middle to the latter part of June. 2. Where can I buy local strawberries? Local growers such as Biringer Farms and Dues Berry Farms have Strawberry Stands set up all along State Avenue. Please click onto the "Berry Sales" tab to view where stands are located. 3. How can I buy a ticket to the VIP Grandstands for the Grand Parade? You can either pre-purchase them by contacting the Festival office or by paying at the grandstands during the Grand Parade. Tickets are $5.00 and we think that they're the best seats on the street! The announcers are right there, the judges are right there and the parade participants perform all of their routines right in front of you! 4. How can I become a sponsor?
