Golden Anne Raspberry

We grow Golden Anne for its outstanding flavor, dependable fall harvests, and reliable cold performance. Its primocane habit makes it one of the easiest raspberries to manage—simply prune to the ground each winter for a clean, productive patch every year. The golden berries add visual appeal and exceptional sweetness, making them ideal for fresh eating, desserts, preserves, and kids’ snacks. For growers looking for a premium yellow raspberry that performs beautifully in northern climates, Golden Anne is a top choice.

Golden Anne produces vigorous primocanes that emerge in spring and fruit in late summer through fall. Canes have excellent hardiness and are easy to manage with a simple “cut to the ground” winter pruning for fall-only production. The plant forms a well-organized clump with moderate suckering, making it easier to contain than older raspberry varieties. Berries are large, soft-gold, and extremely sweet with a smooth texture and mild floral notes.
