PLANTING AND PROCESS

MY SITES MAIN PRODUCE ARE SMOOTHIE DRINKS MADE USING THE LOCALLY SOURCED FRUITS GROWN ON THE SITE, BLENDED WITH ICE. THESE DRINKS PROVIDE A HEALTHY ALTERNATIVE TO OTHER RECREATIONAL SOFT DRINKS SUCH AS MILKSHAKES OR COFFEE.

STRAWBERRIES LIKE RICH SANDY SOIL. WE WILL BE GROWING SUMMER FRUITING STRAWBERRIES AND ALPINE STRAWBERRIES WHICH LOVE THE SHADE. THEY ARE A SOURCE OF POTASSIUM AND VITAMIN c, AND HAVE SHOWN EVIDENCE OF SUPPORTING HEART HEALTH AND REGULATING BLOOD SUGAR, SAME AS THE OTHER BERRIES GROWN ON SITE DUE TO BEING FULL OF ANTHOCYANINS.

BLACKBERRIES, RASPBERRIES AND BLUEBERRIES ARE PERENNIALS AND REQUIRE LITTLE MAINTENANCE (SUCH AS PRUNING) AS THEY TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES. THEY ONLY NEED TO BE A FOOT APART AND GROW IN ROWS AND CAN BE COMPANION PLANTED.

APPLES CONTAIN VITAMINS A, E, B1,

BLUEBERRIES PREFER ACIDIC SOIL WITH PH 4-5 TO MAXIMISE GROWTH. THEY GROW BETTER IN
