Strawberry is a ghost town in Washington County, Kansas, United States.

[1][2] By this year, five families lived in the town, home to a post office, a general store, and a school district.

It was named by Roger Howley and a Mr. Alcott after the wild strawberries growing in the area, specifically after a large bed near the town center.

[1] In 1909,[3] the Leiszlers built a skating rink and a dance hall which became a popular destination for travelers.

In the 20s and 30s, many cars in the area had spare tire covers reading, "I Danced at the Strawberry Pavilion".

Three hundred people attended a ceremony where archivist Dan Fitzgerald of the Kansas Historical Society spoke about ghost towns.

Several streams, including Parsons Creek which runs through the town center, flow south into the Republican River.
