Raspberries

Heritage Everbearing Red Raspberry

Fall Gold Everbearing Raspberry

Canby Thornless Red Raspberry

Raspberries can be used in a variety of appealing ways. Freshly prepared and sugared raspberries are excellent when served alone or used to make a raspberry sundae. The fruit can also be used to make delicious jams, jellies, pies, and other desserts. Besides their excellent flavor, raspberries are a nutritious food, contributing vitamins A and C and various minerals to the diet. In addition, raspberries contain a natural substance called ellagic acid, which is an anti-carcinogenic (cancer-preventing) compound.

Raspberries ripen shortly after strawberries and make an excellent small fruit crop for summer and fall depending on the cultivars selected. Two years are required to establish a raspberry planting, but once established, the planting can remain productive for several years if given good care.
A raspberry planting should produce well over a number of years. The most productive years are usually the 3rd through the 6th year, but rejuvenating an existing bed when it gets 'tired' is easy.
