Blueberry bushes that never get pruned still produce fruit — but the berries get smaller every year and the harvest moves higher out of reach.

OLD CANES — 5 YEARS OR MORE

→ The thickest, grayest stems produce the least fruit. Remove 1 to 2 of the oldest canes at ground level each March. This forces new productive shoots from the base.

→ The gray-cane rule: if the bark is gray and peeling, that cane has peaked. Replacing it with new growth is how the bush stays productive for decades.

TWIGGY TIPS

→ Thin weak growth at branch ends wastes the plant's energy on tiny flavorless berries. Cut twiggy clusters back to a strong upward-facing bud or lateral branch.

INTERIOR CROWDING

→ Blueberries fruit best on wood that gets direct sunlight. Remove inward-growing branches and anything crossing through the center. Airflow here also prevents mummy berry and botrytis.

LOW-HANGING BRANCHES

→ Any branch that touches or nearly touches the ground will produce fruit that rots from soil splash. Remove completely or shorten to an upward bud.

YOUNG BUSHES — 1 TO 2 YEARS

→ Remove all flower buds the first two springs. This feels painful but it pushes root and branch development that doubles yield by year three.

ZONE TIMING

→ Zones 7 to 9 — late February. Blueberries wake up early in warm zones and March may already be late.
→ Zones 5 to 6 — early to mid-March. The ideal window before buds swell open.
→ Zones 3 to 4 — late March into early April once snow clears.

A well-pruned blueberry bush produces fewer but larger, sweeter berries at a height you can actually reach. One session each March keeps it that way for decades.

🐐 Why We Chose GOAT Collaborative for our St. Patty’s Giveaway…

You may have heard us mention GOAT Collaborative, but many people are still asking… who are they and what do they do?

The GOAT Collaborative is a Marion-based nonprofit built around one simple idea:

Stronger communities start with people working together.

Their mission is to connect people to their land, their food, and each other while supporting local farmers, nonprofits, and small businesses across Western North Carolina.

They recently made their very first charitable donation — $2,500 to Foothills Food Hub, helping strengthen our local food system and improve access to fresh food for families right here in McDowell County.

And that’s just the beginning.

GOAT Collaborative is working to build programs and events that support:
🌱 Local agriculture
🥕 Food security
🤝 Community partnerships
💧 Responsible stewardship of our natural resources

In other words… they’re investing directly into the future of our community.

That’s exactly the kind of organization we want to stand beside.

So for our St. Patty’s Giveaway, every raffle ticket purchased isn’t just another entry to win a CoolPeel, Custom Facial with Shannon, or a 60-minute massage…

🍀 It’s also helping support GOAT Collaborative and the work they’re doing right here in Marion.

If you’ve already entered — thank you.
If not, now’s the perfect time to jump in.

Let’s have some fun, win some amazing prizes, and support something bigger than ourselves.
