What are the best places to buy strawberry and raspberry plants? (Price is definitely a big factor for me.)

And what varieties are the best tasting for home use?

I'm hoping to plant this fall.

Many thanks!

The only place I've bought fruit products is Starks and they were fine.

Nourse Farms is the best in terms of quality per $$.

For taste get Earliglow strawberries and Caroline raspberries.

Just don't buy them at one of the big home-improvement stores. I got several gallon size sequioas early last summer and they haven't done much in two years. Later in the summer I bought a dozen Tri-star and Hood bareroots from a local nursery and they have been so prolific with tasty berries and offsets that I now have more plants than I can count!
