Three gooseberry bushes. I love the gooseberries, but a tree has shaded them over the years and they barely produce in the shade. They need a sunny spot (I currently have them in a 10' x 2' strip) where you can handle a plant with longish spines. Given the way our climate is these days, you could probably transplant them in fall or early spring; I'm happy to hold onto them until then. (They do require spring and summer maintenance to control sawfly; I'll tell you details if you want the plants.)
Red raspberry plants. The berries are great, we just are planting different things in the spot. We do have raspberry cane borers in the plants, but they're easy to control. Given the way our climate is these days, you could probably transplant them in fall or early spring; I'm happy to hold onto them until then. We absolutely have as many as you want. And more. Would you like more?
Two kits for building nested octagonal garden beds (two larger bases and smaller tops). Pros: Incredibly light plastic, easy to assemble, no tools needed (tongue and groove). Cons: Like to disassemble themselves slowly over the course of a year; we've been known to reinforce them with duct tape and sometimes rope. I can't find a great picture but you can probably extrapolate from this corner shot here. (It's the brown one with tiers and strawberries, not the big piece of bending black plastic.)
