Sims 4 players can influence the gender of their Sim’s baby with the help of strawberries. If you intend for your pregnant Sim to have a baby girl, consider serving them strawberries.
Additionally, strawberries can be used to prepare a variety of dishes, including Pleasantly-Unpleasant Waffles.
But, the question is, how can you obtain these delicious strawberries?
Well, strawberries are relatively rare in the game, but there are ways to acquire them, and we’ll explain how.
Where To Find Strawberries in The Sims 4
Harvest Strawberries from Wild Bushes
Take a stroll around the neighborhood, and you might come across some spawned strawberries.
The downside is that this activity can be time-consuming, and the results are not guaranteed.
Places in Willow Creek where you have a good chance of finding strawberries include Magnolia Blossom Park, the hidden location of Sylvan Glade, Pendula View, Courtyard Lane, Foundry Cove, and around the Oakenstead estate.
In Oasis Springs, strawberries can be found in Parched Prospect and Bedrock Strait.
If you have the City Living expansion, you can find strawberry bushes next to the Goth house, but only in spring.
Buy Some Seasonal Spring Seed Packs
If you have The Sims 4: Seasons expansion installed, consider purchasing some seasonal spring seed packs. With luck, you might discover strawberry seeds in the pack.
The primary advantage is that if your Sim plants their own strawberry plants, they’ll never run out of strawberries.
The only drawback is that there is no guarantee your Sim will find any strawberry seeds in the packages.
Some players have reported not receiving any strawberry seeds even after buying 20 packages.
Strawberry plants take some time to grow and become harvestable.
A Sim with a gardening skill of level 5 or higher can save you a lot of time by simply taking a cutting of the strawberry plant and grafting it onto a plant at home.

Buy Strawberries from the Vegetable Stands in San Myshuno
In The Sims 4: City Living, you’ll find vendors selling fruits and vegetables.
Specifically, there’s a vegetable stand in San Myshuno where you can purchase strawberries.
And that’s essentially the sole place to buy strawberries in the game.
Get Strawberries from the Debug Menu
And there’s also a cheat method. You can use the buy debug cheat in build mode to obtain as many strawberries as you want.
⇒ Here’s a Helpful Tip:
If you want to have a baby girl in Sims 4, make sure your Sim listens to pop music and eats strawberries as often as possible.
This combination is guaranteed to influence the outcome.
If you prefer to have a baby boy, your Sim should listen to alternative music and consume carrots.
Happy Simming!
