The Year of Strawberries in Lăpușnicu Mare - The Vidu Family Enjoys a Harvest Rarely Seen Record production of garden strawberries in Lăpușnicu Mare. The Vidu family garden located in the middle of the village offered an impressive production of strawberries this year, to the joy of the householders and those around them. From under the dark green leaves, from healthy bushes, emerge the bright red strawberries, ruby ​​​​of Lăpușnic. In the Vidu family household in Lăpușnicu Mare, the beginning of summer came with a pleasant surprise. The strawberries were abundant, more and more beautiful than in other years, transforming the garden into a true spectacle of nature. Everything was prepared and worked by the hands of the hosts. From digging the garden to fertilizing the soil with rotted manure and planting the stolons thread by thread, followed by the elimination of weeds and pests, all with a hoe and lime juice and bluestone, like in the old days. And that only where it was needed. Now, after months of work and care given to the crop, the results are worth it. The fruits are of all sizes, red, fragrant and sweet, and the harvest far exceeds the expectations of the farmers. The joy is all the greater as this year's production is considered one of the richest so far. The Vidu family says that some of the strawberries will be transformed into homemade jam, thus preserving the aroma of summer for the cold winter months. The rest of the harvest will go to friends and neighbors, in a gesture that keeps alive the tradition of solidarity and good understanding between the people of the village. Another part of the strawberries is sold to those who want a clean fruit, free from pollution and chemicals, say the family members, proud of the results obtained. In turn, the strawberry growers of Lăpușnic will also receive honey, fruits or agricultural products from their neighbors that they do not produce. The story of the Vidu family is further proof that work, patience and love for the land are amply rewarded. In Lăpușnicu Mare, a rich strawberry harvest brings not only the satisfaction of a job well done, but also the joy of sharing the fruits with those around them. In a corner of the Almaj Valley, strawberries have become this summer the symbol of abundance, generosity and authentic farming. And this rich fruit with the aroma of the field and work bears the name of the Lăpușnic ruby. Adi Neagu
