Naturipe Farms kicked off California strawberry season with increasing volumes of its delicious varieties of strawberries. Naturipe, one of the world’s largest producers of fresh berries, will offer several of its proprietary varieties and premium berries, including the supersized Mighty Reds, Greenhouse variety and of course the familiar favorite conventional and organic strawberries.

While Mother Nature pushed back the start of the season, Naturipe is still expecting outstanding quality on its California strawberries for the spring season. Production is increasing now through the next few weeks and the crop will feature large, juicy, flavorful strawberries. The proprietary varieties offered by Naturipe are part of the company’s New Era of Berries, which is defined by improved quality of berries; ramped-up innovation in breeding, growing and packaging; and continued top prioritization of sustainability throughout the business.
