Description
Early-Season, Vigorous, and Exceptionally Flavourful
Developed by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Wendy is an early-season (June-bearing) variety that brings a bright start to the strawberry harvest. It produces large, vibrant red berries with excellent fresh flavour — sweet, aromatic, and well-balanced — making it a favourite for fresh market sales and U-pick operations. The berries have average firmness and hold their shape well during harvest, while the plants themselves are vigorous, high-yielding, and consistent performers year after year. Wendy shows moderate resistance to powdery mildew and adapts well to a variety of growing conditions, particularly in prairie climates. With its early ripening, strong field performance, and exceptional flavour, Wendy is an excellent choice for growers looking to open the strawberry season with a dependable, high-quality Canadian variety.
