Currant Product Overview

Currants (Ribes)
These shade tolerant bushes produce an abundance of nutrient packed berries that are especially high in vitamin C. When eaten fresh, black currants have a very pungent and distinctive flavour that is definitely an acquired taste but they make the most delicious jams. The red, pink, and white varieties are much milder tasting.

Spread a thin layer of wood ashes around the base of the shrub. Some local gardeners use straw and claim it works better yet.
