When is the strawberry season in Queensland?
There are two strawberry growing seasons in Queensland – one running through winter (generally May to October) that encompasses growers from Brisbane and north through to Bundaberg, and a second running in the cooler Stanthorpe region during summer (generally from October to May).
Check out your local farms for their specific strawberry season dates and open times. It is always a good idea to call in advance, as weather conditions can affect the crop yield, and unexpectedly hungry pickers can reduce the availability.
