Solberry Seabuckthorn - Manitoba, Canada
Mila Maximets was very familiar with seaberries and their oil as she was growing up in Russia. After moving to Canada, she had difficulty finding anywhere to buy this wonderful crop. Mila established Solberry http://www.solberry.ca/ . There were difficulties of establishing a new specialty crop in a new location yet Solberry has become so successful she wishes there was more berries available to meet the demand. Currently stores in British Columbia and Manitoba sell Solberry products. A high-end Japanese company has expressed and interest in Mila's sea buckthorn puree.
