Strawberries

Future interest · not part of the planned launch crops

Grown in a controlled environment and harvested when ripe rather than when it suits transport. Strawberries make the farm to table case on their own.

Reference nutrient amounts

Reference food: Strawberries, raw, USDA FoodData Central (SR Legacy, FDC ID 167762). These are reference values for the food, not measurements of a UCFarms harvest.

Folate amounts retain USDA’s “Folate, total” identity. New crop profiles use the separately reported Folate, DFE from the same food record for %DV; Kale retains its reviewed conversion. Each row’s source link explains its calculation.

Basis: raw edible food, per 100 g. % DV uses FDA Daily Values for adults and children 4+ where one exists; values above 100% are shown without capping. Reference amounts describe the USDA food, not a UCFarms harvest. “No DV” means there is no applicable Daily Value or conversion.
