Sweet and Sour!  

The perfect fruit for enjoying fresh in the summer or frozen all year round!

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!
