Church leaders have no idea when work might restart.

- explain how to grow them effectively
- sell (or exchange with) you enough plants to get you started (for half what you’ll pay in the shops)
- explain how to avoid root spread

Planting then now/soon will give them an awesome head start on next season (don’t wait for spring!)
These are fantastic fruiters (red raspberries - Heritage, Cluther & Lewis)
Bartering?
Can’t afford to buy? I’m open to swapping plants for other produce including relish, jam, whatever you make.
Send me a message and we'll swap phone numbers.
PS I also have some exceptional thornless blackberries.
