“Finally, time to buy blackberries again!” – we hear it every season
Blackberries are the ideal berries for snacking. They ripen from early July to late August and are harvested fresh for you every day throughout this period.
With their sweet and tangy flavour, they taste great on their own, in ice cream, in muesli or on yoghurt. On top of that, the fruit contains only a little sugar. The berries only develop their full aroma once they’re soft and come away easily from the stem.
The best blackberry selection – just for you!
Their dark colour can easily be deceptive when it comes to perfect ripeness. That’s why harvesting by hand isn’t so easy – but we’re happy to take on the challenge with our experience. Because it’s worth it for you: besides being eaten fresh, blackberries are great for making juice, jelly or jam.

Control is good, trust is better. We think so – and we take care of both. We trust in our regional way of working, which is at the heart of who we are and of our fruit and vegetables. And we check every blackberry, as well as every vegetable, individually for you at harvest.

Our top tip for storing, buying and preparing:
For blackberries, there’s a simple rule of thumb: chill, chill, chill! Warmth isn’t good for blackberries at all. Keep them in the fridge for no more than 2 days – but ideally, enjoy them right away.
Freshness all the way. Every time you shop.
Quality matters to us. In every hand-picked berry, every spear of asparagus, every pumpkin, every cherry. WERNER’s word of honour.
