We didn't have any fresh left, and just got frozen store bought. They were complaining the store bought didn't have as much flavor and were sour. While I told them to eat them anyway... I also used it as an excuse to talk about how local food is much fresher and can be picked at the right time.

I was planning on replacing this bed this winter with a new one as it is starting to fall apart. I am thinking I will not plant strawberries in the new bed as any virus in the soil would probably transfer to new plants. I guess I will build 2 more beds, one with new soil for new strawberry plants.

This sounds like a job for crop rotation. You could have 5-6 beds and switch 1-2 out every year, then grow annual vegetables in the 2-3 empty beds.
