When is the best time to start growing grapes and wild strawberries and can they both be started off in propagators? How would you grow them?

Buying plants is the easiest way. I doubt you can grow a grapevine from seed. The alpine strawberries probably, but I don't know what the success rate of that would be, let alone the length of time.
They can be planted at any time as long as the ground's suitable. I take it you have a large greenhouse or similar for a grapevine?

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
I bought my wild strawbs as plugs last spring.
There're covered in flowers at the mo.
Can't wait to get tucked in, that's if I can get to them before blackbirds find them.
