N. C. Blueberry Council Executive Director Gets A Tour!
This small gallery of images was submitted by North Carolina Blueberry Council Executive Director, Brenda Park. You can get an idea of how many layers of work it is to get blueberries from field to glowing goodness in a clam shell at your local grocer!
You can learn more about the Moore’s blueberry farm by visiting their website at: https://ivanhoeblueberryfarms.weebly.com/
“My husband and I had the opportunity to visit and do a guided tour of Neil and Willie Moore’s Ivanhoe Blueberry Farm last week (in Ivanhoe, NC). Despite the busy day, they were very welcoming, patient and educational. I now have a much better understanding of everything involved in growing, cooling, packaging, and shipping blueberries! I also learned how instrumental North Carolina State University has been in researching and advancing blueberry production and packaging.
As an added bonus, Neil and Willie sent us home with some delicious blueberries along with a family recipe for No-Bake Blueberry Cream Cheese pie! That alone was worth the trip!”
