What is a good online source to buy raspberries and blueberries?

I can't find any of the varieties that I'm looking for locally. Thanks

    Nourse Farms is supposed to be THE place for raspberries. They have quite a few varieties of both raspberries and blueberries. I've had good results from Stark Brothers, but they don't have as large of selection.

    I don't know how to do 2 links, so here you go.
    noursefarms.com

    I haven't shopped for raspberries but blueberries are available through many many many sources. Some of the sources require larger minimum orders. Many specialize in warmer or colder climate varieties. I'll attach a link to a list of edible fruit plant sources that you may find helpful. Just remember that if you aren't familiar with the source, check them out through Garden Watchdog (or similar resource) before ordering. My list includes ratings.

    Hi All
    Brandon, Love the list, you should post that every time this question comes up. We have ordered from many of these companies and I agree with your list. Personally Nourse has some of the best plants you can get. We ordered 150 Polana Rasp and they were great, we picked about 100pt off of them the first year. The asparagus roots (all 1000 of them) were huge! easily 12-18" long and I think every one came up. We also got several varieties of rasp from Hartmann's and they were very good also. The only bad plants from Hartmann's were the rhubarb, they were pale and died, they replaced them and the same thing was sent. I would definitely order from them again, just not rhubarb.

    Hello,
    2 years ago I ordered some fruit trees from RainTree in OR, as part of the deal I got to choose some bonus plants - I chose some raspberries and they shipped the most amazing specimens I have ever received from anywhere - instant clumps.

    Thanks everyone for the great info! I really liked all your suggestions, but it was hard to find a good site that sold both caroline and anne raspberry bushes. After searching Brandon's list I found rain tree(thanks also Chad for confirming me it was a good site) that had both that didn't require a minimum order, I only wanted 2 plants of each, most sites required at least 5. I will be planting these in pots and don't want 10 pots of raspberry bushes, at least yet. I really did like the Nourse site and went to place my order but noticed the shipping to my area was going to be $25.00, so maybe I will order from them in the future. Thanks again!

    Peaceful Valley Farm & Garden Supply just got their Blueberry plants in and listed them today.

    I wanted to get a couple of Evergreen Southern Highbush varieties but wanted to wait until they actually had the plants before placing my order. Today was the 1st day they were listed as in stock.
