🍓 Before Plant City drew half a million visitors to its famous festival each winter, it was a quiet railroad town that figured out it could do something almost no one else in the country could, grow sweet red strawberries in the dead of winter. While the rest of America shivered under snow, the fields around Plant City turned green and heavy with ripe fruit. 🌱

The secret was the climate and the timing. Plant City's mild winters let growers bring berries to market in January and February, when northern farms were frozen solid and a fresh strawberry felt like a small miracle. The town leaned into it completely, calling itself the Winter Strawberry Capital of the World, and in 1930 it launched the Florida Strawberry Festival to celebrate the harvest.

Nearly a century later, that festival has grown into one of the biggest events in the state, packing the town every late winter with rides, shortcake, and crowds that dwarf the local population. 🎡 But under the carnival lights it is still the same old story, a farming community proud of the humble berry that put it on the map and still fills its fields each winter.

There is something wonderful about a whole town built around strawberry shortcake. Have you ever made the trip to the Strawberry Festival, and if so, what did you load up on first?

We've been selected by the U.S. Department of State to lead the new SAFE (Safeguarding Agriculture, Food and Economy) Innovation Lab, a global initiative focused on protecting fruits, vegetables, and spices from destructive pests and diseases before they reach American farms.

This Lab will work with partners in seven countries to create an international network that uses , crop modeling, diagnostics, and risk mapping to identify agricultural threats early and stop them at the source. The goal is to strengthen the first line of defense against pests and diseases that could impact Florida growers, U.S. agriculture, and food supplies around the world.

Beyond crop protection, the initiative will focus on developing disease-resistant crop varieties, reducing post harvest food losses, improving food safety and nutrition, expanding market opportunities for farmers, and training the next generation of agricultural leaders.

Find out how UF's leadership in this groundbreaking initiative could help shape the future of agriculture, food security, and global crop protection.
