2020 was a great, and hopefully a unique season! We had tons of berries and plenty of people to pick them. And though we had to wear masks or face shields, our farm finally joined the 21st century by accepting credit cards! (If only we could get a consistent signal.)
BLUEBERRY PRUNING – WINTER 2021 — Blueberries! After the fruiting is done we do a large-scale pruning of the field. In the winter, however, Stan walks each row, examining plant after plant, carefully removing certain canes. David and Jonathan then collect the canes, selecting a number that will ultimately go back into the field as supports for branches and canes. The others can be seen in the picture with Jonathan next to them. (And that was just the first pass through.)
WINTER 2020 – 2021 — There are a lot of unseen moments in running a berry farm. We want our customers to see what we see year round so we will be updating with more photos. In the summer everything is lush green, giant, and inviting. The winter provides rich contrast of colors, and a visibility through the field that allows for all kinds of viewing.
