The tart and glossy blackberry is a cross between the Chehalem and Olallieberry blackberry and was developed by Oregon State University along with USDA Agricultural Research Service in 1956. The Marionberry is simply named after Marion County, Oregon.
Ever since then, the Marionberry has been associated with summer, and is a great ingredient for ice cream and jams.
The Pie Spot on Northeast 24th St. in Portland has a delicious Marionberry pie served with fresh whipped cream. Marionberry pie served at Bipartisan Cafe on Southeast Stark, has a thick fruit filling and crispy crust.
