Tips & Techniques
- Strawberries grow low to the ground. Kneeling and sitting on the ground may be necessary.
- Ripe berries will hide under the foliage. Lightly brushing leaves to the side will expose more berries.
- Pinch the stems with your fingernails. Pulling the berry can hurt the plant and bruise the strawberry.
- Only pick the darkest, completely red berries. Unripe berries will have green tips or be green on the underside Strawberries will not ripen after picking.
- Strawberries should only be washed right before eating. Berries can be stored at room temperature or in the refrigerator for a few days but will not keep longer then that. Strawberries may be frozen after they are washed, hulled and stored in an air tight container, vacuum sealed if possible.
- The fields aren’t typically muddy, but light colored clothing may be stained by the red berries.
- Sunscreen and water are recommended.
- For your safety, closed toed shoes are required.
