Strawberry

From LoveToKnow Garden

Strawberry (Fragaria) - The wild Strawberry is pretty on banks and on old mossy garden walls. F. monophylla is a beautiful rock garden plant, with large white flowers. The Indian Strawberry, F. indica, is a pretty trailer, bearing many red berries and flowering late. All are of the easiest culture.

If these are true Alpine strawberries, yes, they are very good to eat. However, if they are just wild strawberries they do not have much flavor. Wildlife enjoys them very much, but you probably won't be very impressed. They won't hurt you but they are usually white inside and flavorless.
