places to buy elderberries and elderberry trees

This page will be small for a while, as I’d rather add sources only when I know they’re legitimate, as opposed to just doing a web search and listing out all the providers I find.

buying elderberries

  • Ulrich Young - Ulrich mainly sells to local wineries, but he also keeps a large store of frozen de-stemmed elderberries from his plot in Oklahoma, and can ship. I’ve personally ordered and received berries from him, which were packed carefully and arrived safely within a few days. Ulrich can be reached by email at robcrkranch@hotmail.com.
  • Herbalcom - I’ve ordered dried elderberries from them, but they’re not due to arrive yet. I’ll update as soon as they reach me with a note on their condition and speed of shipping.

buying the whole plant

(Note that I haven’t ordered elderberry plants from anywhere yet, so those listed here are simply the providers that seem to be currently advertising their elderberry plants most widely, which gives me reason to think they are at least still in the business of selling them.)

    Hmm,… I just re-checked my email, and that was the correct address… there’s no chance you accidentally copy-and-pasted and included the period, is there? If not I’d try it again, since it was only a month or two ago I last heard from him from that address. Good luck!

    I like your site. I’m an elderberry fan from way back. I eat them by the handful when good and ripe. They are actually sweet when fully ripe. Made some cordial a few years ago and liked it very much. I’ll see what printer cartridges I need and get back to you. Thanks.

    I contacted Ulrich and he got back to me this weekend. Thanks for the connection to him. It was robcrkranch@hotmail.com that worked for me.

    Have found a good site with reasonable prices for dried elderberries. Have not heard from Ulrich so don’t know what is going on there. Anyways, here is the new and very reaonably priced site which also sells herbs and lots of other things.

    ELDERBERRIES GROW ALONG THE ROADS HERE, BUT I HAVE YET TO SEE A BERRY.

    Found this site in Oregon. Sent an email to see if they ship. Will update when I hear back from them.

    Why can’t I find frozen or fresh Elderberries anywhere? I have searched the websites posted and they are selling plants or extracts etc. I only want the berries to make pies, jam etc. Thanks

    robcrkranch@hotmail.com is the only source I’ve found for real quantities of fresh/frozen elderberries.

    I just received a reply from him and he should start harvesting this season’s crop in a few weeks.
