Strawberries directly from the field

[Libra]

I recently bought strawberries fresh from the field. Nothing to compare with the ones sold on supermarkets ( "second hand" I would rather call them ).

One kilo costs 5 TL , allready packed. They are sold in stands like tents beside the road ( I have seen two stands close to each other ).
The seller said , they sell strawberries from January to June.

The problem is , can I describe the way ? Maybe someone else who bought there strawberries can make a better description. OK , I 'll try : It 's on a straight road streching between fields. That road  is situated between Kipa and the main Antalya road and streches parallel to the Antalya road. The road had been busily used while the Antalya road was closed due to construction.

I hope someone can find the spot.

We live near this spot and yes the strawberries are wonderful - so sweet and fabulous flavour.

If you drive past Kipa on your left going towards the Otogar - turn left about 300 mtrs past Kipa (opposite Bim on your right)

You will see the 2 stalls about 500 mtrs down that road on the left hand side opposite the mosque

Ps we bought because we saw all the locals stopping in cars and buying and they are right!!

For a change english fruit has the one up on Turkey' as strawberries are in abundance this year, and of the best quality.  I love fruit in Turkey, including the strawberries, but I defy anyone to find a better strawberry than a local English strawberry in season from Kent or Sussex.  So I'm looking forward to strawberries galore in the next few weeks:D

I  think you need to come to Scotland Mr Tickets and try our local Strawberries from Auchtydonald, which is about 8 miles up the road from us at Mintlaw.  They have a farm shop where they sell strawberries and raspberries which are so sweet.  Princess Anne paid a visit a few years ago. Auchtydonald also supply M.&.S.  I have tried lots of Strawberries, even English ones, but never found any as good as the ones from Auchtydonald.  However, I am looking forward to a comparison test with the Turkish strawberries. Thanks for the info on location Ian.
