Blueberries and honeyberries are easy to grow given the right soil conditions. Blueberries need acid soil (and hate lime) while honeyberries will do better in a slightly wider range of soils, but still prefer acidic areas. The large berries of both plants are delicious eaten raw, and also freeze well for mid-Winter jams, pies, and smoothies!

Bareroot berries | January to March

Nearly all of our berries are sold in bareroot from January to March. We find this is the best way to get your berries started since they're dormant until the weather warms up in spring.

Potted berries | all year round

Some berries are notoriously difficult to get started from bareroot (ahem, raspberries), as many gardeners will have experienced. Because of this, we also stock a large selection of potted berries in spring and throughout the rest of the year. The best selection, and the best time to plant in order to have ripe summer berries the same year, is in spring (April to June). Outside of these times our selection can be limited.
