This Sunday, June 23 is the Full Strawberry Moon.


June's Full Strawberry Moon got its name because the Algonquin tribes knew it as a signal to gather ripening fruit. It was often known as the Full Rose Moon in Europe (where strawberries aren't native). ◼ The Old Farmers Almanac

The summer solstice heralds the beginning of summer.
