Strawberries come in season primarily during the spring and early summer months, but the exact timing varies widely depending on the region and climate.

  • In most U.S. states, strawberries are picked and readily available from April through June.
  • In warmer southern states like Florida, the strawberry season can start as early as February , while states in the Deep South, such as Alabama and Georgia, have their peak season in late April and May.
  • Middle southern states like Tennessee, Arkansas, and Virginia typically see strawberries ripening in late May or early June.
  • Cooler northern regions and mountainous areas usually have strawberry season in June and July.
  • Strawberry season can stretch from February to July in various parts of the country depending on location.
  • The strawberry season typically lasts about 3 to 5 weeks in any given region when the berries are at their peak quality.

To summarize, strawberry season in most places is from February (in the warmest southern areas) through July (in colder northern areas). The peak months for many regions tend to be April, May, and June.
