- We have 30 Guinea keets for sale. $6@ at this time. Price
will rise to $10 for adults if we have some at that point.
Watch
this video of our feeding Japanese beetles to the keets.
We collect these beetles each day from raspberry, blueberry
and grape plants. The keats go wild!

- We are picking both our rapsberries and blueberries. Picking
is great right off the start. This will be a great crop for
blueberries and a very good raspberry crop.
Raspberries
We have been growing organic raspberries here at Fruitlands
since the late 1970's. At present we have over 1,200'
of neatly-trellised rows. We sell both PYO and custom
picked. Our varieties are: Latham, Killarney, Nova, Encore
and Pollana. Our typical season begins in mid July and
goes through August. |

in the mid 1980's. Presently we have 100 high-bush plants.
We sell both PYO and custom picked. Our varieties are:
Bluecrop, Patriot, Duke and Northland. Our season for
blueberries is late July through mid September.
We

Maple
Syrup
We have been making fine Vermont maple syrup at Fruitlands
since 1979. Hundreds of former guests at our farm have
continued to purchase our syrup via USPS or UPS. Although
we do not take Web orders at this time, ordering by
e-mail or by
phone (802-426-3889) is very simple and makes for good
conversations. We accept checks or VISA / Mastercard.
We
ship weekly. We use only recycled shipping materials.
To keep our pricing simple, our prices for Fancy (Grade
A Light Amber), Grade A Medium Amber, and Grade A Dark
Amber are the same. Grade B is priced below those grades.
We
will be glad to help you make your choice. All maple
syrup is shipped in plastic jugs only. We do not "estimate"
shipping costs. We charge only the exact shipping cost
with no added cost for packaging or handling.
If
you would like to learn about being a back-yard sugar
maker, read this short
introduction to the art of making maple syrup. |
