Known as The Winter Strawberry Capital of the World, the charming town of Plant City, Florida has come a long way from its agrarian roots.
Located on the easternmost edge of Hillsborough County, snuggled conveniently between Orlando and Tampa, Plant City traces its history to the 1840s, and officially became a town in the 1880s.
Today, it's known primarily for its annual Strawberry Festival, which draws a few million visitors every year to its famed Strawberry shortcake booths, thrilling midway rides, local livestock and craft exhibits, and internationally known music acts.
Plant City isn't all just strawberries, however. It has a ton of unique history and local culture to offer visitors all year long. Here are 14 things to LOVE about Plant City, Florida, all from a girl who grew up there.
As someone that loves to travel, I learn every time what I need to pack for my next trip. Take it from me, whether its a short or long haul flight, these are some items that can make your travels more comfortable and organised. A trip that's smooth sailing makes all the difference when you're on holiday and trying to relax or explore.
We take several vacations per year and have found some items to be essential for land or cruise vacations. Additional tip- If you are traveling with a passport, make sure you make additional copies of your passport and email them to yourself and keep some copies with you. You don't want to lose your passport on a trip or have it stolen. Before a trip., I start packing small things and then as it get's closer I write down the items that are missing from that luggage on a sticky note and put it on the luggage. As I add that item, I cross of the item on the sticky note. It helps prevent missing items, but it still can happen, especially when kids do their own. When it comes time to leave and go home, we put all the dirty luggage into 1-2 pieces of luggage and then I can easily throw it all into the washer when we get home.
These are the travel items I love. These make my life easier. There is enough stress involved in travel, I don't need to worry about packing and having everything I need.
