In the Gillman household, July 4 isn’t just Independence Day. It’s Black Raspberry Day.

“The kids obviously love it and I feel like it really hearkens to that innate knowledge of understanding: ripe fruit, in season,” Gillman said. “Because when you see a raspberry in the wild, your body and your mind and everything else just knows, ‘OK, this is a raspberry.'”
