Raspberries are one of the most rewarding fruits you can grow at home, producing a generous harvest year after year once the canes are established. They do need a bit of upkeep, pruning old canes, giving them something to grow along, and staying ahead of how quickly they can spread. But the payoff is baskets of fresh raspberries all summer long, plus plenty extra for freezing and jam. They’re also a fantastic fruit to get kids excited about the garden, since the berries are easy for little hands to pick. Below you’ll find our tips for planting, pruning, and caring for raspberry canes so you can enjoy a great harvest every year.
