ASHLAND, Va. -- Folks gathered for an annual tradition to celebrate the strawberry harvest in historic Ashland on Saturday.

The Ashland Strawberry Faire took place from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on the campus of Randolph-Macon College.

The free community event featured more than 300 vendors selling arts, crafts, antiques, plants, food and of course, fresh strawberries.

And a new feature this year was a dunk tank where public officials got wet for the charity of their choice.

There was also live music as well as the popular strawberry and pet pageants.
