How to Plant Strawberries by the Moon & the Zodiac

Many people decide when to plant strawberries, or any plant, by the phase of the moon and the zodiac sign associated with it. The belief in this system has lingered since ancient times. Not only does the Farmer's Almanac still propose this method as a viable system, many university extension offices offer the information.
