The night sky is putting on a show this summer with three incredible full moons. From the sweet glow of the Strawberry Moon to the powerful Sturgeon Moon, you won’t want to miss these celestial highlights!

🍓 June 29 — Strawberry Moon
Named for the peak strawberry harvesting season, this first full moon of summer often has a warm, golden glow near the horizon.

🦌 July 29 — Buck Moon
This moon marks the time when young male deer begin growing their new velvety antlers.

🐟 August 28 — Sturgeon Moon
Traditionally named after the giant sturgeon fish plentiful in late summer, this year it will also coincide with a deep partial lunar eclipse.
