The best way to grow strawberry from seed is to 1. collect the seeds by placing 4-5 whole berries in a blender filled with water. 2 Frape the berries. Seeds that float are not good discard. 3. Strain out the sinkers. 4 Take seeds and scatter them over a something like a baking plan filled with a comercial potting mix. 5 Scatter a light dusting of potting mix over the seed (1/8 - 1/4 inch). 6. place pan in the sunlight somewhere in your home. 7. Seed will germinate over 2-8 weeks. 8. As you see the small plant emerge, carefully pluck them out and move to Dixie cups or some such container and allow them grow to a transplantable size.
Caution strawberries are octoploid (8 sets of chromosomes compared to our 2) and don't come true to type. Commercial strawberry plants are produced asexually to come true to type.

Growing Strawberries From Seed

It would depend on where you get the strawberries. Sometimes the place where people grow their strawberries they make them sterile. I, myself, would cut off a piece of the surface and place it in soil. The flesh will rot away but the seed should germinate.

Yes, but it's not easy. Just plant them in the ground. Since they are small, you don't want to plant them very deep. Basically that is how they make different types of strawberries.
