Frozen black raspberries produced by Oregon Berry Packing Company offer a delicious taste and can be found in a variety of specialty products throughout the world.

Black Raspberries Offer Flavor and Color

Oregon Berry Packing Company began growing and processing black raspberries in 1954.  Today, we supply about 20% of the wholesale black raspberry market.  This unique berry is prized for its strong, dark purple color as well as its flavor and is found in specialty jams, jellies and other food products as a coloring ingredient.

Our black raspberries are picked by hand and by machine then processed in our plant under strict quality standards.  A blower removes field debris, then the berries are washed and sorted by hand.  Black raspberries are usually frozen whole in pails or barrels, but they are also available as a concentrate or puree.  A normal black raspberry season lasts approximately three weeks, beginning very early in July.

Ground Breaking Nutritional Information

Recent studies have highlighted the tremendous health benefits associated with eating black raspberries.  This berry is shown to contain one of the highest amounts of antioxidants of both fruits and vegetables!  In fact, a study has been published associating black raspberry consumption with fighting esophageal cancer--and we've heard from at least one consumer that his doctor is endorsing two cups daily of black raspberries for esophageal cancer sufferers.  You can learn more about the nutritional benefits by clicking on the links at the bottom of this page.
