The event is scheduled from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the church at 12 Hodge St., with shortcakes made of homemade biscuits dopped with crushed strawberries and whipped cream or locally made ice cream on the menu.
Quarts of berries picked just that morning will be for sale. Hot dogs and veggie dogs will also be available.
