My aronia (gotten from Bear Creek some years ago) are hyper- 
productive, loaded down in fruit.  This year I allowed them to dry on  
the bush & they produced very clean mold free "raisins" that were  
sweeter & more concentrated that the fresh fruit.  & picking was  
simple as the dried fruit came off easily & stem free.
