The Forest Strawberry, scientifically known as Fragaria vesca, is a wild variety of strawberry that grows naturally in forests, meadows, and along woodland edges. Smaller than the typical garden strawberry, Forest Strawberries pack a punch in terms of flavor, offering an intensely sweet, aromatic taste.

- Small, but Flavorful: Typically around 1/2 inch in diameter, Forest Strawberries are much smaller than typical strawberries, but their flavor is rich and concentrated, making them a sought-after treat in the wild.
- Rich in Nutrients: Just like its larger cousins, the Forest Strawberry is high in Vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber, offering health benefits for the immune system, skin, and digestive health.
- Delicate Appearance: The Forest Strawberry is a delicate, fragrant berry that features a bright red color with tiny seeds on its surface. Its smaller size makes it a visually striking addition to any dish.
- Versatile Culinary Use: Although tiny, these berries are incredibly versatile. They can be eaten fresh, made into preserves, added to baked goods, or used to flavor syrups and beverages.
Specifications:
- Scientific Name: Fragaria vesca
- Common Name: Forest Strawberry, Wild Strawberry, Alpine Strawberry
- Size: Typically 1/2 inch in diameter, small and round in shape
- Origin: Native to temperate regions in North America, Europe, and Asia
