Raspberry Raspberries

Appledore Woods Berry Farm grows two varieties of summer raspberries: Nova and Killarney. At the present we do not have U-Pick raspberries. All of our raspberry production is sold pre-picked at the Eau Claire Downtown Farmers Market. We hope to have raspberries for U-Pick very soon.

Raspberry History

Red Rasberries have been cultivated in Europe for over 400 years. In North America, cultivated raspberries originated from two groups: red raspberries, native to Europe, and wild red ones native to North America. By 1867 over 40 different varieties were known.
