We live in southern Minnesota and want put some raspberry bushes in the backyard, being new to gardening should we wait until next spring or could they establish themselves well enough during the hot summer months to survive the winter without expert attention?

Raspberries do not respect containers. They will escape.

If you have a wooded edge of your property, I'd plant them in the ground there. That's what they like; they won't grow up in the woods, and if they pop up elsewhere you can cut them down.
