Sweetness that doesn't quit in July

Why growers keep coming back

Most strawberries give you three good weeks. ION gives you a season. Released by the University of California breeding program, it’s a true day-neutral — it sets fruit on day length-independent cycles, so a spring planting keeps producing large, deep-red, high-sugar berries from early summer until frost shuts it down.

The fruit is what made ION famous: long conical berries, firm enough to hold in the fridge for a week, sweet enough that farmers-market growers price them above their other varieties. It’s also the variety the greenhouse and hydroponic industry standardized on — if you’ve eaten a premium winter strawberry, there’s a good chance it was an ION.

Ours are different in one way that matters: every crown is certified organic. Grown near Mt. Shasta in soil disinfested with steam and biology instead of chloropicrin, dug dormant, cold-stored, and shipped at your planting window.

Trim expectations, not blossoms-forever: pinch the first flush of flowers after planting and ION repays you with bigger plants and heavier picking from midsummer on. Growing guides →
