The Aronia Berry: Growing Super Berries in the Midwest

Posted by Scott McKenzie on 9/20/2016 to About the Aroniaberry

It's been interesting speaking with a number of the local farmers in Nebraska and Iowa regarding the Aronia crop, the growing season and the harvesting of the berries. I've noted that most of the farms place a firm emphasis on organic production of the Aronia Berries and are very careful to foster the bushes on land certified organic by the USDA. This careful attitude of the farms toward the organic growth of the bush and the Aronia Berry ensures a more natural tendency toward health and wellness.

Benefits of Aroniaberry vs Cranberry

Posted by Superberries on 9/12/2016 to Berry Comparisons

During the past few months I’ve been doing a research project on the comparison of various well known berries and how they stack up against the lesser known Aronia Berry. It’s been an interesting project and the knowledge I’ve gained regarding the various berries is quite enlightening to a “foodie” such as myself. In the course of this research I was asked how well the Aronia Berry stacked up against the cranberry. While cranberries are high in natural antioxidants and provide nutritional value to any diet, the Aronia Berry still manages to top the cranberry in nearly every category.
