*Hubby and I went and it is $20 for trees, $8 berry bushes, $10 for smaller trees.  We did not keep the paper so I do not have the exact pricing.  The trees are very tall, easily 5 year olds.  Raspberry and blueberry bushes, several flowering plants, lots of fruit trees.  They can also get you boxes to take soil samples and give those to the CO-OP to mail off for processing.  I'm not sure the cost of the kits but it's worth it for those serious about gardening.
