Eddie Evans: Peaceful Valley Nursery
Irrigation & Blueberries
Grant Award: $3,000
Eddie sells ornamental shrubs, grapes and fruits/vegetables at the local farmer’s market and to other nurseries.
With his grant, he is replacing his overhead irrigation system with drip/micro spray to conserve fresh water, eliminate runoff, lower the consumption of electricity and reduce the spread of diseases.
Eddie is also creating a You-Pick blueberry patch to further diversify his income.
