Ernest and others,
Our supply was not large enough to offer this year.  We will have Fort Kent King or another hardy blackberry in the catalog asap.   We have dug a few Fort Kents and may be able to send out some plants shortly after May 10.  If interested, please contact me off-list.  
Best regards, 
John Bunker

Fedco doesn't sell this blackberry.  Their catalog is difficult to
read so I called their "facilitator" for info.  Internet says this
blackberry is hard to buy.

Ernest,
   May I suggest your trying Fort Kent King blackberries.  I bend
the canes down every Fall, weighting them with fence posts and/or
pipes so the snow will cover them.  My eight plants, plus suckers,
give me 100+ pounds of fruit per year.
   Fort Kent King is available from FEDCO Trees, owned by NAFEXer
