The People’s Apothecary Garden - Plant of the Week #20 - Raspberry Leaf

Raspberries - the queen of fruits! A summer favourite, these delicate “berries” are actually aggregates (strangely enough, bananas, pumpkins, avocados and cucumbers are true berries). The fruits can be used to make syrup, added into desserts, or eaten fresh off the plant. The leaves also are edible and can be used to make tea, packed with vitamins and minerals.
