The Brambles: Sorting through the Thicket of Rubus Terminology with Susan Belsinger, HSA Honorary President Thursday, May 21st – 1pm EDT

Rubus spp. is the International Herb Association’s Herb of the Year for 2020. Members of the family Rosaceae, they are a prickly bunch commonly referred to as brambles or brambleberries, and sometimes caneberries. While we consume these fruits in many ways from fresh to preserved, in beverages, vinegars, jams, jellies, baked goods, desserts, salads and more, we don’t often think to use their leaves. The foliage of Rubus has been used for centuries in remedies from easing female maladies to stomach complaints, sore throats and and all sorts of skin conditions.
