Does anyone know where I can buy pint-size berry boxes? I would like to sell my blackberries, raspberries and bluberries at the local farmer's market, but am having a hard time (even on the internet) finding containers I can sell them in. Really like the forum. Thanks for any help with this question.

Hi, I get old stuff from the food bank for my pigs. I recycle berry baskets for selling my own stuff. There are lots there, I just feed the mooshy berries to the pigs, (they love them!) and bleach and wash the baskets for future use. If you go to the 'bank' when the California berries are in, but verrrry expensive, there will be lots there. You'd think they'd price them so they wouldn't waste so many! I bring home 10 flats at a time sometimes. That's a lot of baskets. Jill

Hi Barb,

I bought wooden berry baskets from Jung's Quality Seeds catalog.

Their website: www.jungseed.com

I hope this helps you.
