Ice Cream

Strawberries have a long history in Oregon, both as part of our agricultural landscape and also as part of our state's story. From arriving via the Oregon Trail, to varieties being developed to combat disease, to a century old celebration with enough strawberry shortcake to feed a city, Oregon is serious about its strawberries.

Sunday is National Strawberry Ice Cream Day, and there's no better place to celebrate than in Oregon, where some of the best strawberries are grown.
