Why Grow Elderberries

Elderberries aren’t just beautiful—they’re functional. These cold-hardy shrubs are native to our region, easy to grow, and packed with benefits. They attract pollinators, support wildlife, and yield berries rich in antioxidants. Whether you’re planting for health, habitat, or homemade syrup, elderberries earn their spot in the garden.

One Plant. Many Purposes.

You don’t need to choose between beauty and utility. Elderberries provide:

  • Spring blossoms that feed native pollinators
  • Dense foliage that offers privacy and habitat
  • Late-summer fruit for preserving, drying, or winemaking
  • Soft fall color for a beautiful garden close to season’s end

This is the kind of plant that fits just as well in a backyard as it does in a hedgerow.
