I'd like to plant a sweet berry that can be eaten raw (i.e., not for preserves/jams) in my garden in the spring. I'm in USDA Zone 5. Annual rainfall is about 34 in/year, and about 75% of that falls in the growing season. Does anybody have a strong preference in taste (or any other practical considerations) between ground cherry vs. sunberry (also called wonderberry). My primary purpose for my family to eat right out of the garden. If we have a surplus, I suppose the chickens could have some, too.
Thanks.
