Berries

Berries are a diverse group of small, soft fruits that are especially prized for their bright flavors, colors, and short harvest seasons. In the Northeastern U.S., locally grown berries include strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, currants, gooseberries, and other specialty or wild berries.

Berry seasons overlap, creating a progression of fresh local fruit throughout the growing season. Strawberries generally arrive first, followed by blueberries and raspberries, with blackberries and some specialty berries extending into late summer.
