N.C. Strawberry Project

The N.C. Strawberry Project is a partnership of N.C. State University at the N.C. Research Campus (including the Plants for Human Health Institute and N.C. MarketReady) and Johnson & Wales University in Charlotte. This project received support from the Golden LEAF Foundation.

Strawberry season lasts four to six weeks in North Carolina.  It begins in the coastal area in early April, in the Piedmont in late April and in the mountains in late May.
