Blackberries
Blackberries are juicy berries made up of many small drupelets that form around a central core. They range from deep red to nearly black when fully ripe and have a sweet-tart flavor that becomes richer and sweeter as they mature.
Blackberries grow on canes and are available in both cultivated and wild varieties. Farm-grown berries are often larger and more uniform than wild berries, while wild blackberries can have a more intense flavor. Their delicate texture makes them best enjoyed soon after harvest.
