Before the start of the summer season, participants of Moscow fairs suggest that city residents pay attention to frozen strawberries, blueberries, lingonberries, and other berries gathered in the forests and gardens of various regions of Russia — from Karelia to Siberia.
So, Moscow fair participant Vasily Ushakov brings wild berries to the sites on Orenburg Boulevard and Khachaturian Street.
“In the northern region, berries grow in harsher conditions and accumulate especially many beneficial substances. Cloudberries, Arctic raspberries, water berries, wild blueberries, sea buckthorn, lingonberries — all these are our wealth gathered by hand. Eat cloudberries more often — and everything will be fine with your health,” shares Vasily Ushakov.
The product presented on the counter is obtained directly from the collectors with whom the fair participant has been cooperating for many years. The use of air shock freezing allows preserving the shape, texture, and taste properties of the berries.
In addition to wild berries, frozen garden berries can also be purchased at the interregional fair. The assortment includes raspberries, lingonberries, wild strawberries, black and red currants, cherries with pits and elderberries, gooseberries, sea buckthorn, serviceberries, as well as ready berry mixes and sliced apples for compote.
Products are transported from Tyumen, Krasnodar Krai, Ivanovo Oblast, and other regions. You can find berries at several sites: in YUAO — at Sumsky and Rossoshansky passages, in TAO — on Kvarcevaya Street, in NAO — near Zheleznodorozhnaya Street, in SAO — at Berezovaya Roshcha passage.
Frozen berries are convenient to use for preparing everyday dishes. They will not only become a bright decoration for desserts but also help maintain health in the spring. Wild raspberries are a natural antiseptic, cloudberries strengthen immunity, and lingonberries are famous for their tonic properties.
Berries are added to porridge and yogurt, used for making compotes, fruit drinks, and smoothies, as well as fillings for baking and bases for homemade desserts. For example, there is a simple way to make a sorbet from frozen berries. Any berry mix is enough to whip with two spoons of honey and soft cottage cheese, distribute into dessert bowls, and leave in the freezer for an hour. You get a delicate dessert without added sugar.

Moscow fairs invite cooperation with agroaggregators from regions who will be able to represent several farms and enterprises of a subject of the Russian Federation at once. This not only allows local producers to enter the capital market, but also attracts the attention of tourists to the region, and generally has a positive effect on its image. More about cooperation can be found on the official website of the GBU.“Moscow fairs”.
