Get ready for a sweet day full of fun, flavor, and hands-on, educational activities during the Strawberry Festival at the Queens County Farm Museum. Learn about the life cycle of a strawberry, test your brainpower with strawberry word games, and compete in a strawberry cream pie eating contest. 

Then take a spin at pin the stem on the strawberry, a twist on a classic party game.

And, don’t miss the highlight of the day: the strawberry costume parade at noon! Dress up as your best berry, and march through the festival with friends, family, and fellow strawberry fans. Prizes, cheers, and plenty of photo ops await!
