FARM NOTES

Houston, we have blueberries! Today I picked up 27 blueberry plants from Finch Blueberry Nursery, based about 90 minutes east in Bailey, NC. I had to get a biiiit creative fitting them all into my little wagon, but we figured it out by wrapping each plant in a trash bag (to catch loose soil) and leaning them on their sides / popping them in every possible corner. For more details about the different blueberry varieties we’ve chosen, check out my journal entry from a week ago.

We’ll be planting these bbs on Thursday, so stay tuned for a full tutorial on our process for prepping the soil + planting.
