Eat your own raspberries all year round!
Grow a bumper crop every year and freeze the surplus for winter!
These raspberries are amazing!
Price:
- $20 is a starting price
- I have plants $5, $10, $15, $20
- The more you buy the better the deal
- three $10 plants for $20 is a good start
- For a decent patch you’ll need 5-6+ plants
I will:
- show you my two domestic raspberry patches
- explain how to grow them effectively
- sell you enough plants to get you started (for half what you’ll pay in the shops)
- explain how to avoid root spread
- give you a 2-page handout with instructions
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)
NOTE: Don’t bother with white-yellow-purple-whatever colour raspberries … RED raspberries are what you want … LOTS of them.
I'm also open to swapping plants for other produce including relish, jam, whatever you make (it’s called bartering!)
Send me a message and we'll swap phone numbers.
PS I also have some exceptional thornless blackberries for sale.

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
