▶How to Pick Strawberries the Right Way◀

To pick strawberries, gently pinch the stem just above the berry and twist it off.
Use your thumb and index finger to pinch the stem.

1. Pick fully ripe berries
Choose strawberries that are completely red, with no white or green spots.
2. Be gentle
Don’t pull hard or press too much on the berry.
3. Leave the stem
Keeping the stem on helps the berries last longer and makes them easier to eat.
4. Pick in the morning
The best strawberries are often picked when it’s cooler in the morning.
5. Store quickly
Keep your strawberries cool right after picking.
6. Don’t overfill containers
Overfilling can crush the berries at the bottom.
7.  Avoid bruising
Don’t drop the berries into your container while picking.
