According to the Old Farmer's Almanac, which began publishing full moon names in the 1930s, some Native American tribes referred to June's full moon as the "strawberry moon" to mark the short but sweet strawberry harvest season.

June’s full moon, known as a “strawberry moon,” may appear reddish because of its low position on the Southern Horizon.

Avid sky-watchers observed as the Strawberry Moon made its hotly-anticipated appearance on June 10. Known for its unique amber hues and, at certain glances, rosy glow, the Strawberry Moon is thought of as the final full moon of the spring or the first full moon of the summer.
