The Red raspberry comes from Asia Minor, and has been grown in Europe for over 400 years! The Romans brought red raspberries all over Europe, including to Britain.

The British loved the berry and exported plants to New York in 1771.

There are also wild red raspberries that originated in North America.

The black raspberry is from North America as well. But this berry was not as popular as the red, so it wasn't grown very much until the 1800s.
