We're changing our name!

Members of the North American Bramble Growers Association (NABGA) voted at their annual meeting on January 31 to change the name of the organization to North American Raspberry & Blackberry Association (NARBA). This name change will head off the question "What's a bramble" that is so frequently asked, and make our organization more understandable to the general public as we let everyone know about our delicious, nutritious fruit! We will continue to be a membership association of blackberry and raspberry growers and agricultural professionals working to improve raspberry and blackberry production, link growers together, and spread the word about raspberries and blackberries. Both names may be seen, for a while, as we make this transition.
