The big strawberry ice cream shop now has a web site at worldslargeststrawberry.com.
[Pat Mills, 03/12/2008]This is an old fashioned homemade ice cream shop in the shape of a strawberry -- complete with stem! The owner is a strawberry farmer, with the last name Berry. He makes ice cream with wooden Amish churns. They also feature a fresh market produce stand with homemade jams, jellies, pickles, etc.
It has 2 bathrooms, diaper changing tables, RV parking, pet rest areas, an old church pew and picnic tables for relaxing while eating ice cream on their homemade waffle cones, or to munch on their own boiled peanuts accompanied by a glass-bottled coke.
[Pat Mills, 05/29/2007]This produce store claims to have the (or one of the) World's Largest Strawberry. It's certainly possible. In any case, it's easy to see coming in either direction, esp. heading north. And it looks like a slightly flattened strawberry, too.

Compared to other World's Largest Strawberry claimants, this ice cream shop stretches the definition of "Strawberry." Still, it's a pleasingly weird-shaped and painted building...and they did grab the domain name!
