Strawberry seeds are used in the Farming skill to grow strawberries. They were released along with the farming skill at 11 July 2005 (update). They can be sown in an allotment patch. Planting strawberry seeds gives 26 experience and requires 3 strawberry seeds to be planted/dipped into an Allotment patch using the seed dibber.

A nearby gardener will watch over your growing strawberries at the cost of 1 basket of apples.

Strawberry seeds are dropped by Ogres, Ice warrior, Moss Giants and other monsters; zygomites have the best drop rate. Head Farmer Jones has a stock of 10 in Burthorpe. They may also be obtained by pickpocketing Master farmers, stealing them from Olivia's seed stall in Draynor village, or foraged by a fruit bat familiar. They can be obtained from the high gamble from Barbarian Assault minigame.

They can also be bought from Head Farmer Jones in Burthorpe for 18 coins. He has 10 seeds in stock.

They can also be obtained for 165 Vinesweeper points.
