All the leaves that I collected last fall and I piled up for me to shred, sat in a section of our backyard due to me traveling many times to check on my parents. Over a week ago I got many raspberry bare roots … sooo, I started thinking

Let me check under them leaves … so many earthworms and wonderful leaf compost forming that I decided to make a raspberry patch right there added compost and planted them raspberry roots! 80 of them and I still have many more.

Our local garden group is having a plant sale on May 14 and asked me if I had anything to sell. Well, I sure have lots of raspberry bare roots. I’m not a good seller, I always like giving stuff away I want to sell them cheap, big box stores have them for $12 each , let’s not mention the local nurseries. So today potted some, depending how big they get by then thinking $4-$5 each, is that too much?

Hubby and I went on a road-trip to Indiana. Came across a post an apple orchard placed about bare root raspberry plants. I inquired and was able to get them at a wonderful price. I better get to planting, cause there is 170+ plants! I paid few cents per plant look at them roots !
