Located in the lush Willamette Valley of Oregon, The Berry Empire has been growing ‘Oregon’s Best Berries’ for over 20 years. Founded in 1981 by Nicholas and Natasha Dubenko, who immigrated to the United States from Russia, the Berry Empire now produces over 15 varieties of berries including a ‘Secret Variety Strawberry’ and a blackberry we call the “Monsterberry”. Our very own ‘Emperor Berries’, are a unique cross of several berries that are large and robust in flavor, developed by Emperor Nicholas himself. Our Berries are handpicked at the peak of their season to insure the best quality and flavor and are available fresh from June through September at our berry stand conveniently located at the entrance of the Berry Empire. Frozen berries are also available all year round along with our ‘Berries in a Jar’ Made exclusively from handpicked berries, ‘Berries in a Jar’ is a product so low in sugar and big in berry flavor you will think your eating fresh ‘Berries in a Jar’.
