I found out via Facebook (marketplace) the this stall had raspberries for sale ..$2NZ per punnet. Too good to be true so we set out driving - it was about 60km return but a wonderful afternoon sojourn. The raspberries were fabulous and there were new potatoes, celery, herbs, garlic, eggs, huge spring onions!
Thankful for:
a lovely warm and still day in the country. I didn't want to leave
@maggiemae My brother has an honesty box at his small vegetable farm down in Kent - he says you wouldn't believe the things people put in there (although most people are honest). They get foreign coins, paper IOUs, and old bits and pieces of stuff people don't want. Quite incredible really.
Sounds delightful Maggiemae....We have honesty stalls here too & hope they keep on keeping on...a pleasant drive & fresh fruit/vegs 7 helping the grower a little....
What a great trip....the raspberries sound good value & more home grown produce, what’s not to love & a day out too! You would be ready for a change of scene Maggie! We have a few honesty boxes round here too, mostly eggs & milk but spoilt by thieving persons sometimes...there’s always some that take advantage.
@happypat There was a huge field there, covered with white netting so that's probably where the raspberries are. We only saw one truck passing while we were there but maybe it is more neighbourly.
There are many roadside stalls in our neighbourhood; we love to buy there.
