There is a local restaurant and bakery that specializes in ollalieberry pies and preserves. The fruit is a combination of sweet and tart and is one of my all time favorites. "What is an Olallieberry? The Olallieberry is the primary fruit we grow on our farm and for which we are quite well-known. It was first developed in 1949 by the U. S. Department of Agriculture at Oregon State University by crossing a Loganberry with a Youngberry. The result was called the Olallie, a Native American word meaning blackberry. Physically the Olallieberry looks like a classic blackberry. Genetically, however, the Olallieberry is approximately two-thirds blackberry and one-third European Red Raspberry. The Olallieberries we grow on our farm are fairly tart which makes them perfectly suited for Linn's delicious More Fruit-Less Sugar pies and preserves." http://www.linnsfruitbin.com/faqs#1
