After struggling along the last few years trying to acquaint folks with the berries we produce on our farm, the fact that SPIN lists Aronia as a #2 trend couldn’t have come at a better time.
Will it instantly translate into more folks trying Aronia berries? Probably not, but it may make folks pause and Google. Because honestly, too few have heard of the little dark purple berry that has become very important in our lives. We hope anyone who Googles Aronia Berries, or Aronia Melanocarpa, will learn what we’ve known for the past 10 years. Aronia does your body good!
After SPINS recognition, folks who are interested in natural foods and health may research Aronia. We know the folks interested in bettering their health will seek items to use. Our hope is the attention garnered here will eventually translate into demand for more products containing Aronia.
Trending is fabulous! Here in Central Iowa, there are a lot of organic Aronia plants just waiting to fulfill the need. We have about 5,000 bushes on our farm ready to produce healthy organic berries next Fall.
