After receiving our grant funds we set to work prepping the ground and planting our blueberry plants. We had already performed a soil test and knew we needed to amend the soil because the pH was too high for blueberries. We plowed through the field with a subsoiler before tilling it. We then put pine mulch on the tilled ground to help lower the pH. We then tilled the mulch into the ground before drilling holes with an auger for our plants. After planting our blueberry plants, we put down more pine mulch as a bed for the plants and began installing our irrigation system. We are now able to transfer water from one of our other farms to keep our blueberries watered with our solar-powered irrigation system. We purchased our blueberry plants from Joyner Blueberry Farm in Belews Creek, NC and would recommend them to anyone buying blueberry plants.
