Native Americans coined the term for the red ambience that adorns the night sky during a full moon in June and the coincidental ripeness of strawberries in the season.

Since a full moon is opposite the sun, this strawberry moon will shine lower in the sky than usual, according to NASA. However, the soft reddish glow will do little to rescue the building around the Megenagna area.

Dried foods like grains and pulses are essential here: mainly because they can be stored well for months, and ensure families have security when times get tough...
