Canada buffaloberry.

The article from Canadian Wildlife discusses the Canada buffaloberry, also known as Shepherdia canadensis, a shrub found across Canada except in P.E.I. Bears are particularly fond of buffaloberries, consuming large quantities during the months after they ripen. The plant plays a crucial role in ecosystems as a non-legume nitrogen fixer, providing essential nutrients for plant growth in a balanced and safe manner. Additionally, buffaloberry supports early pollinators and adds color to native plant or pollinator gardens. [Extracted from the article]
