Raspberry Plants Need Winter Care! As hardy and as vigorous as Raspberry plants are, they most definitely can benefit from a few simple steps to prepare the for the coming winter. Left unchecked, you could be subjecting yourself to an unruly patch at best, and poor to no harvests at worst.
In this video I show you 4 ways that I set up and prepare my Raspberry patches for winter dormancy to ensure that I am getting maximum harvests next summer. No matter if you have a summer-bearing or an ever-bearing variety, these steps work for ALL Raspberry plants!

Amazing man real good work if only i had some that would be cool
I have an everbearing raspberry that is growing runners now will these runners fruit next year in fall and in 2022 summer asweel
A lot of bought nutrition there… Don’t you do household composting? Maybe that’s more common in Sweden, where I live. I have also heard that raspberrys like some wood ash that can drain down with the melting snow in spring. What do you think about that?
I have wild rasberry in one corner of my land and it's not my favorite fruit but I noticed I have less and less fruits so this fall I cut it all and will see if I have something next summer. Right now it's too late to do something else I already have snow on my land

My baby raspberry patch is my favorite part of my garden. Since I'm in Sooke and same zone as you, I have just simply used all of your raspberry videos to teach me what I need to know. Seriously loving the vids and knowledge. Can't wait for your Spring pruning and amendment video!!
Thanks for the info! If I wanted to take cuttings from my existing patch to transplant to a new area, when should I do that? And should I cut from primacane or floricanes?
My father has 4 rows of raspberries, two on one edge and 2 in middle. There was a path between the two rows do you could easilynoick all the berries. The rows ran the le gth of the garden, about 30 feet. Mom made raspberry jam and raspberry sauce. I still make the sauce today. I love it. So easy to make. Mother canned her, I just eat mine as I don't have that many berries.
HI BUDDY MISS UUUUU
I got raspberries in a can.
That was cool………What about for my outdoor tomatoes? Should I use Rock Phosphate, Epsom Salts, Glacial Rock Dust, Alfalfa Meal, Canola Meal now for the soil?
Enjoyed the video And raspberries do you prepare blackberries and blueberries the same way please I have all three this is my first year with them Sandra from UK
Love your channel and mostly burn with envy over what you can grow. I'm in the heart of Alaska in zone 2A — edging into 1B in bad winters. Mulching with anything I've ever been able to come up with: straw, leaves, dried grass clippings, etc. just invites in voles that will gird woody plants and eat roots. It's nice to watch and dream though.
I am surprised you didn't toss the weeds you pulled out, back on top of the last layer of straw you added.
Great vid man! Screw winter tho right…?:)
Does this apply to blackberries too?
Hi I am curious. I had a client with a wonderful large and ancient raspberry patch. This year they were hit with rust in the spring really bad. Do you recommend cutting them all to the base, removing any fallen raspberry leaves (to eliminate rust spores)? Usually I prune like you advised in this video but I've never seen such a bad case of rust on them before. Thanks, I love your videos!
I have to get out and clean up my berry patch. We got a few inches of snow this week, so I better hurry up!
I'm trying the back to Eden system with my berries and trees, relying mostly on deep wood chips. We'll see how it goes!
Does most of this apply to wintering over blueberry bushes too?
What a very informative video! Thank you for sharing.
