Where to get strawberry seeds in Stardew Valley

Strawberries are one of the best fruits currently in Stardew Valley; they are also a gift for one of the romanceable NPCs and can be turned into wine. That said, here's how to get strawberry seeds in Stardew Valley. 

How to get strawberry seeds in Stardew Valley

To get strawberry seeds in Stardew Valley, you must wait until the Egg Festival that takes place on the 13th day of every spring in Pelican town square. At the festival, you will be able to buy the seeds for 100 gold per seed from Pierre, who will be at a booth close to the town's entrance; along with this, you can also buy various other egg festival-related items.

Once you get the strawberry seeds, you can then plant them, and they will take a total of eight days to mature and four days after your first harvest. We recommend buying a large number of strawberry seeds and saving them to plant on the next first day of spring; however, you can also plant them on the day you get them, but it will be tricky. This is because once you enter the town square, you won't be able to leave until the festival ends at 10 pm. 

To get around this, you will need to plan ahead and till your soil and water it ahead of time; that way, you will be able to plant the seeds and fertilize them all in one day. You can also plant strawberry seeds after the festival, but your best bet is to go with either the 13th or 1st of spring.
