The Salmonberry is a foraged fruit found on bushes in Stardew Valley during Salmonberry Season (Spring 15-18). Bushes can be shaken to knock berries loose by using the Check action. It won't be found in the wild outside those days. It can be found at any time (randomly) in the Farm Cave if the fruit bat option is chosen.
Salmonberry has the lowest sell value of any foraged item, making it one of the few fruits that is worth more as a Jelly than a Wine. With Bear's Knowledge, processing Salmonberries into Wine may even result in a loss of money.
Details
The number of berries obtained from each salmonberry bush increases as the player's Foraging Skill increases. At Level 4, two berries will be harvested from each bush instead of one. At Level 8, three berries will be harvested from each bush. If Foraging Skill is temporarily increased to 12 or more with a Foraging Buff (by consuming food), then 4 berries will be harvested from each bush.
Salmonberries harvested from bushes grant 1 Foraging XP per berry harvested.
With the Botanist profession all Salmonberries, from all sources, will be iridium quality. Otherwise, berries shaken from bushes will always be regular quality, regardless of Foraging skill. Therefore, the only source of silver and gold quality salmonberries is the Farm Cave.
Even though Salmonberries are a foraged fruit, they benefit from the +10% Tiller profession price bonus, but the bonus is too small to have an effect unless the player also has the Botanist profession (iridium quality) or Bear's Knowledge. The only exception is Salmonberries found in the Farm Cave, which do not receive the Tiller bonus unless they are combined in a stack with bush Salmonberries (see the fruit page for details.)

Tips
- While the game suggests gathering Salmonberries to get extra cash, its low sell value also makes it a cheap source of energy and health, and an inexpensive gift to those who like it. Salmonberries can be especially valuable in year 1, when energy resources and gift options are limited. Raising Foraging to level 4 in the first two weeks of the game may yield a total harvest of over 400 salmonberries during harvest time (over 10,000 supplemental energy).
- Each bush has a 20% chance to spawn salmonberries on the overnight update, plus a small random bonus chance.

- 1.6.3: Fixed bug where reloading a save would result in more bushes having berries during Salmonberry season.
