Strawberry is a ghost town in White Pine County in the U.S. state of Nevada along Nevada State Route 892.[1] The town was known for its 12,000-tree orchard and huge fields of strawberries. Strawberry is mainly used today as a ranching settlement.[2] The post office was in operation from 1899 until 1938.[3]
