Every single strawberry is the result of lots of care and work. Fortunately I know to appreciate the work involved in strawberries. I was lucky enough to grow up in a small strawberry plantation my parents started to get some additional income in addition to all other farming products.
We all know from where strawberries come ... from the supermarket shelves. We also know who does all the work ... we hire cheap foreign labor willing to work for less than 5$ per hour because the work is too hard and too low paying for us ...
Wrong!
It is time to learn to do such jobs ourselves. No matter how little it pays.
Strawberry farming is a year long work of caring for your strawberry fields, for each plant and each fruit.
Many ways to grow strawberries - artificial, chemical / plastic methods and organic natural methods. The coming pictures will show you how to grow strawberry plants and berries.

Small young strawberry plant during the first season - this plant is already bearing strawberries. Strawberry plants bear fruits from the very first year. However the second season will have a fully grown up plant with much higher harvest than first year.
Start your own small strawberry garden. Strawberry plants are rugged and easy to care. But as seen here in all previous pictures, the fruits require all year loving care. If you have a really sunny balcony and a huge pot, at least 50-60 cm diameter, you may start a single strawberry plant on your balcony. In the same pot you also may have a few other plants or herbs for your kitchen!
Strawberries are among those fruits absolutely NOT suitable for deep freezing. Freezing changes color and taste! The berries are best fresh, eaten the very same day as harvested.
There are many ways to enjoy fresh strawberries - as shake or my favorite creation strawberry dessert - love filled valentine hearts.
