	Plant City
The Winter Strawberry Capital of the World

Plant City is located in Hillsborough County on US19 and State Road 50. The town is situated near Dover.

Plant City is part of the Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, Florida metro area.

Plant City was incorporated in 1885, 16 years after the state was chartered. Originally Plant City was a huge cotton center. Changing its major crop to strawberries has brought it national recognition. Today, over three-quarters of the nation's midwinter strawberries come from Plant City. At the Strawberry Festival, held each winter, you can taste some of the finest shortcake, pie and cobblers made from the freshest strawberries in the land.
