Berries have always been good for us, but of late they are getting even more of a pat on the back due to the flavonoids (anthocyanins) that give raspberries their color. Additionally, they are a good source of vitamin C, fiber, and, although sweet, rank low on the glycemic index – making them an excellent choice for those monitoring their blood sugar levels. All that aside, they are just plain delicious.

Raspberries are called brambles and reside in the genus Rubus. They come in red, black, and purple. Okay, there are yellow ones as well, but they are just red raspberries that lack red pigment. Raspberries are suited to USDA zones 3-9 but certain cultivars do better in certain areas. Hardy varieties, such as Boyne, Nova, and Nordic, thrive in northern regions while Dorman Red, Bababerry, and Southland are more heat tolerant for those living in southern climates.
