University of Florida - IFAS
We work very closely along the University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences team to conduct field trials aimed at developing new blueberry varieties. UF IFAS provides research, education, and extension services to support Florida farmers in improving productivity, sustainability, and profitability.
Technology
We constantly seek out innovative technology that allows us to be better farmers. We have seen huge success in our automated irrigation and fertigation systems, mechanical harvesters, state-of-the-art packinghouse equipment, and AI drone sprayers which have helped optimize productivity and quality. It is key we stay at the forefront of technology to drive efficiency and sustainability.

Environmental Stewardship
This dedication to responsible farming through collaboration and innovation earned us the Florida Commissioner's Ag-Environmental Leadership Award in 2018. This award is a prestigious recognition given by Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services to farmers, ranchers, and agribusinesses that demonstrate outstanding environmental stewardship and sustainable agriculture practices. The award highlights operations that go above and beyond regulatory requirements to implement innovative conservation methods, protect natural resources, and promote eco-friendly farming techniques.
