Strawberry Season Calendar
In Tenerife, the organic strawberry season unfolds under a mantle of uniqueness, thanks to the privileged climate of the Canary Islands. Here, meteorological conditions allow for a longer growing season compared to other regions, which enriches the availability schedule of these red jewels. Unlike the more restrictive seasonal patterns in more temperate climates, in Tenerife, strawberries begin to show their splendor from the end of November, extending into summer, reaching their maximum peak of quality and flavor between January and May.
This extension of the seasonal calendar is not only a treat for palates, but also reflects the harmony with which these organic strawberries are grown on the island. Local farmers, experts in organic practices, take advantage of the subtropical climate to offer strawberries that not only meet organic standards, but also stand out for their intensity of flavor and juicy texture.
Types of Strawberry
Each strawberry variety brings with it a unique history, a distinctive flavor and a set of characteristics that make them special. Beyond the well-known 'Camarosa' and 'Fresón', our selection is enriched with types that may be less known, but equally charming for their properties and flavors.
