About:
B.C. produces over half of Canadian raspberries. Abbotsford is the top producing region in the province.
Most Common Varieties:
- Summer fruiting raspberries: The majority of B.C. acreage is in summer-fruiting raspberries. These are harvested for fresh or processing markets.
- Autumn fruiting raspberries: A small amount of acreage is in fall-fruiting raspberries. These are harvested for fresh markets.
Did you know?
- Raspberries grow best in well drained, sandy, soils, which is why Abbotsford is so well suited to raspberry production.
- All fresh market raspberries are harvested by hand.
- The flowers on summer-fruiting raspberries appear in May and June and are pollinated by honeybees and bumblebees!
