American Elderberry

Sambucus canadensis

Elderberry is rich in antioxidants due to its high content of polyphenols. It also contains a higher concentration of vitamin C than the orange! The berries can be used to make jellies, jams, syrup, juice, fruit bars, and are popular as a dehydrated fruit. It is preferable to eat them cooked, rather than raw.
