All the Blueberries are Planted!

After the soil is prepped, it's time to lay the weed fabric and plant 300 blueberries! Thankfully, we were able to get it all planted ahead of the snow that's headed our way! 💙

Blueberry Planting Time!

After measuring out our rows, we tilled the soil and added peat moss to decrease the pH of the soil and increase the organic matter. Shout out to Tim Miller of Chili Hill Foods & Farm for allowing us to borrow his tiller!

 
 



 Peat and Repeat were in a boat. Peat fell off. Who was left?

Blueberry Plants

The blueberry plants are here! We're planting four different varieties, carefully selected for their flavor and the time of ripening in the summer - though it'll likely be next summer ('26) by the time we're really pickin'.
Over a decade ago, we planted several hundred blueberry plants. But, they were about the size of a pencil, and they never made it to maturity. We have learned our lesson, and this time around, we invested in larger plants. Here's to round 2 of the blueberries at Browder's Fresh Pickins!
