After the first few berries were spotted, we added some protection, to keep them off the soil (assuming this would keep them from rotting / being consumed). Many strawberries were found as we placed the protective layers down – really a cool gardening project so far.
Noah harvested a bunch, and we decided to grab some unripe ones to ensure no critters beat us to them.
Unfortunately, if you harvest them too soon, they never ripen. Oops.
