• Why are local strawberries sweeter? Ohio growers explain (cleveland.com) — Doylestown’s Rittman Orchards is in peak strawberry season right now, with owner Chris Vodraska growing flavorful varieties specifically for U-pick and farm market customers. He and other Ohio growers explain how choosing taste-focused varieties, rich local soils, and plenty of sunshine make nearby berries sweeter than those shipped in. Local supplies are tighter this year after late frosts, but raspberries and blackberries are close behind.
