I will be planting a lot of fruit trees this spring. I am thinking of using strawberries as a groundcover around each tree. Hoping to save tree bark from weedwacker. I am assuming tree roots will be much deeper then starwberries so the 2 willn't compete with each other. Am I right ? What is best tasting strawberry ?

You are correct that they have root systems that exist primarily in different soil zones. It is generally only plants of the same species that compete for resources. Otherwise most plants are cooperative.
