THE SIGHTS
Here’s a brief selection of the things you’ll encounter Saturday:
FRUITFUL STOP: Residents of Strawberry Point are ‘berry’ proud of the food and beverages they have to offer. Chow down and take a photo with the world’s largest strawberry.
ALGAE CLIFF: Explorers can lurk around Bixby State Preserve and Park, three miles north of Edgewood. The park has natural ice caves and it’s one of the few places on Earth to have algific talus slopes (an algae-covered cliff rising out of the cave).
