no you cannot bring in fresh produce into aruba from the usa.
found out a few years ago when i was bringing in a few lemons.
ling has a pretty good selection of fresh produce.

Trying to "pack" strawberries? Imo, you would probably end up with strawberry daiquiri mix , which not necessarily a bad thing ...but like Andrea said, no produce in or out of Aruba.

Yes, ling and son has them readily available. You have to buy them in the store. Buying produce on line is tricky, you get what they choose for you, some close to being over ripe.
