Raspberries...my favorite! You lucky! The stores are pretty high for just a pint....more than I like to spend and probably at least double what you paid! Enjoy!

We have a community of Amish in CO, but it is about 5 hours from us.<br />The last time I looked the raspberries were $2.99 - but I don't think that was even a pint. At the farmer's market in Idaho a few weeks ago they were $5.00. <br />I used to freeze blueberries that way.Dreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02113432418609414054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-11460331030626044152013-07-30T08:33:52.722-05:002013-07-30T08:33:52.722-05:00Those little baskets of raspberries are about $3 h...Those little baskets of raspberries are about $3 here I think. Not sure if they would be a pint, but I think so. If I bought a flat, I could get them at $2.50 lb. The local lady that sells them in gallon ice cream pails, that hold about 5 lb, charges me $8 a pail. I bought some 'jam' berries at a large berry farm for $1.50 lb. I go through 250-300 lb of raspberries each year. Raspberry jam is the most popular.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08938874724231860923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-35790464460308366612013-07-30T08:13:34.401-05:002013-07-30T08:13:34.401-05:00Even though this is raspberry country, I think the...Even though this is raspberry country, I think they are twice as expensive.
