Saskatoon Berries go by many names including, juneberry, serviceberry and prairieberry to name a few. This little round berry grows on a deciduous shrub, and like one of it's numerous name suggests, it comes on in late June, early July. It is known to grow along the West Coast of North America all the way from Alaska to California. The Saskatoon Berry has a blackish-blue, purple hue and appears similar to a blueberry. However, the similarities stop there. Saskatoon's have a mildly sweet, full and wild flavor, with tiny seeds that add nutty almond tones (reminiscent of marzipan!). This berry is actually more closely related to an apple rather than a blueberry.

Traditionally Saskatoon's have been a daily dietary as well as medicinal staple for Native American and First Nation peoples. Its uses included everything from helping treat upset stomachs, to chest pains and lung infections. Modern science has also recognized the true benefits of this tasty berry. With high amounts of antioxidants and nutrients, as well as protein and fiber, the Saskatoon Berry is a healthy and delicious super food.
