ABOUT OUR FESTIVAL:
The 12th Annual Habitat Ocala Strawberry Festival returns to the McPherson Complex on Saturday, March 7, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Admission is FREE, making it the perfect family-friendly event for all ages.

Volunteers from the Marion Therapeutic Riding Association (MTRA) will assist with traffic control and parking throughout the day. Parking is $5 per vehicle, with proceeds benefiting both MTRA and Habitat for Humanity of Marion County.

This year’s festival will feature over 235 unique and exciting vendors, a lively Kid’s Zone with a petting zoo, fresh strawberries from Plant City farmers, and strawberry treats that truly melt in your mouth. Guests can enjoy a bigger-than-ever car show showcasing cool cars, trucks, and motorcycles, along with a pie-eating contest, an action-packed BMX show, and live entertainment throughout the day.

Many local nonprofit organizations will be represented with vendor booths, and several photo booths will be available for capturing festival memories. With food for every taste and activities for every generation, the Strawberry Festival offers something for everyone.

Habitat for Humanity could not host this event without the incredible support of over 700 dedicated volunteers who donate their time, energy, and expertise. We also extend our heartfelt thanks to our generous sponsors for helping make this beloved community event possible.

All proceeds raised from the annual Strawberry Festival will go toward building a new Habitat home—the Strawberry House—providing a low-income family with an affordable mortgage and a safe, secure place to raise their children.
