Strawberry Varieties and Their Harvest Times
Selecting the right strawberry varieties determines how long you can enjoy fresh berries. Each type offers unique harvest windows and fruit characteristics, so planting a mix creates a continuous supply.
-
June bearing strawberries produce a single, heavy crop in late spring to early summer. Their large, sweet fruit is perfect for eating fresh, freezing, or making jam.
-
Everbearing strawberry plants—also called day neutral varieties—bear smaller flushes of fruit from spring until the first frost. These day neutral strawberry plants are ideal if you want fresh berries well into fall.
Combining both types of strawberry plants provides the best of both worlds. June bearers deliver an early surge of fruit, while day neutral and everbearing selections keep berries ripening throughout the entire growing season.

Planting Strawberries for a Strong Start
Successful planting strawberries begins with good planning and careful preparation.
- Pick a sunny site that receives at least six to eight hours of full sun each day to maximize flower and fruit production.
- Strawberries have a shallow root system, so the soil must drain well and contain plenty of organic matter.
-
Plant bare root strawberries in early fall or spring for quick establishment and vigorous growth. Bare roots are economical and adapt quickly to their new environment.
- Set out potted strawberry plants whenever the soil is workable for a head start on the season.
Because strawberries thrive in contained spaces, they are excellent for raised beds, patio containers, and hanging baskets. Even small gardens or balconies can provide enough room to grow a plentiful crop. For small spaces, review our tips on Container and Small-Space Gardening for Strawberries.
Soil Preparation and Bed Design
Success with organic strawberry plants starts with healthy soil. Preparing the planting site before setting out your plants helps them take root and flourish.
- Incorporate compost and organic amendments recommended in the Soil and Fertilization Guide to improve drainage and fertility.
- Raised beds warm quickly in spring and help protect delicate bare roots from excess moisture, which is essential for a strong root system.
- Apply mulch to conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and keep berries clean as they ripen.
- Rotate planting sites every few years to reduce the risk of soil-borne diseases and maintain nutrient balance.

Caring for Strawberry Plants
Regular maintenance supports a productive patch year after year.
- Water consistently, keeping soil moist but never waterlogged to protect the fragile root system.
- Fertilize with balanced organic nutrients to promote flower and fruit development while maintaining soil health.
- Renovate established beds annually with the Strawberry Bed Maintenance Guide to thin runners, remove old foliage, and encourage new growth.
- Protect crowns with mulch during winter to guard against freeze damage and temperature fluctuations.

Common Pests and Diseases
Even well-tended beds can face challenges. Good cultural practices—such as proper spacing, clean mulch, and crop rotation—help prevent problems. Watch for fungal diseases like anthracnose crown rot and phytophthora crown rot, which damage the crown and roots when soil stays too wet.
- Maintain excellent drainage to protect the root system and reduce fungal pressure.
- Remove and discard infected plants promptly to keep diseases from spreading.
- Follow the Pest and Disease Management Guide for organic control methods and preventive measures.
Extending the Harvest
To grow strawberries from spring through fall, combine June bearing strawberries with everbearing strawberry plants. June bearers deliver a heavy early summer harvest, while day neutral strawberry selections produce smaller, steady crops through the entire growing season. Learn how to maximize berry size and sweetness in How to Grow Big Strawberries Organically.
You can also extend production by staggering planting times or by mixing early-, mid-, and late-season cultivars. This simple strategy keeps ripe berries coming when your neighbors’ patches have finished, ensuring you enjoy fresh fruit for as long as possible.
Why Choose Organic Strawberry Plants
Planting organic strawberry plants supports pollinators, protects soil health, and yields berries with exceptional taste. Our plants meet USDA organic standards and are shipped at the right stage for successful establishment. Whether you choose economical bare root strawberries or convenient potted strawberry plants, each option is ready to thrive in your garden, raised beds, or containers.
Organic methods also reduce chemical runoff and encourage beneficial insects. By selecting organic plants, you help maintain biodiversity and improve the long-term fertility of your soil. Growing your own berries at home also means you can enjoy the superior flavor of a freshly picked organic strawberry—a taste that store-bought fruit simply can’t match.
