Minor Small Fruits---Major Impact by Carol Shirk

  • Moraine Park Technical College 700 Gould Street Beaver Dam United States (map)

Although fruits like currant, gooseberry, jostaberry, aronia berry, hardy kiwi, and serviceberry do not make the list of major small fruits like strawberry and raspberry, blueberry and grape, they can have a major impact on the home gardener. Some are native, some are easier than others to grow, but all have benefits to wildlife, pollinators and gardeners themselves. With just a bit of space and time your landscape can have one or more of these beauties adorn your landscape. Carol Shirk has been a Master Gardener for more than 28 years. Raised on a dairy farm in Indiana where her family grew most of what they ate, she has been gardening for more years than she cares to remember. She is an active member of Dodge County Master Gardner Association and enjoys every opportunity to help others learn to garden.
