Our kids wish we had more. I'm not sure which verity these are, but they put out tons of runners which makes me not want to put them directly in soil.

Tips for a bigger crop are welcome :)

I had wild forest-strawberries a few times the last 3 Weeks while hiking. They are everywhere if you look for it. No Idea how to grow them, tried it once but they dried out. Raspberrys are easy to grow, mine get larger every Year.

We have a raspberry bush that I was... silly enough to put in the ground. It's spreading like crazy (about two feet laterally from where it was last year). It's in a raised bed, so hopefully it doesn't go down through the 10" or so of dirt before popping up outside the bed

It will if you don’t put barriers down somehow

Advice on barriers? How far will they grow laterally without being able to get above the ground?
