Peter Bierman discusses blueberry water and nitrogen management to the crowd.

Tom Wall discusses how the raised beds were built for the blueberry water and nitrogen management study.

Raised beds may allow blueberry root zones to drain enough that subsurface drainage may not be required for optimal yields.

Attendees sampled different blueberry varieties to see which they preferred.

Growers crowd around to learn which strawberry varieties PREC staff thought tasted the best.
