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?

Just go for it, try to water them during any dry/hot spells. If you can't commit, then wait until early fall.

The downside is that only canes which leaf this year will bear fruit next year.
