64 Grams!!!!!
Today my Nan was out in her garden picking summer fruits and strawberries. She was just going along the rows of strawberries when . . . she pulled back a leaf and there lays a MASSIVE strawberry! Nan went into her kitchen and weighed it, in the end it weighed 64 grams it is the biggest strawberry I have ever seen (and the reddest!!!) Have you ever found a strawberry in your garden that big??? Anyway, when my Nan came to show me she told me about about the town of Motu (where we live) and all about the history of Motu's strawberries. And AMAZINGLY they had massive strawberries like the one she found.

Wow, that is a big strawberry! I wonder if it is Motu or your Nan that makes the strawberries so big?!
How did it taste?

Kia ora Hayley, I work with Mrs Krausse and Mrs Torrie too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for including the picture comparisons with your hand and the coin. Highlights how big the strawberry is! Reminds me of picking strawberries when I was around your age. It's wonderful that your Nan is sharing these stories with you too.
