Kent Strawberry
Double Delight Raspberry

Kent Strawberry is a favourite of urban gardeners and commercial growers. This June Bearing (Short Day) strawberry grows well on the prairies and produces high yields of bright red fruit that bursts with flavour. Great for fresh eating or try them in your next batch of jam or baking.

One of the most cold hardy strawberries!

Double Delight raspberries have an excellent sweet-sour flavor. They freeze well and are suitable for use in jams, juices, and pies.

The Double Delight Raspberry is a primocane-fruiting variety, meaning that it produces fruit on first years' growth. Prune stalks down each winter or early spring to get higher fruit yields and easier harvesting.
