Students Spend a Day on a BC Blueberry Farm with GRIS Canada and KidsBuildBiz

Blueberry bushes heavy with fruit

Working with KidsBuildBiz, a non profit that teaches young people how business works, GRIS Canada brought students onto a working blueberry farm in British Columbia through Future Farmers.

The grower walked them through varieties, bees, harvest crews, the packing line and the math that decides whether a farm does well in a given year.

By the end of the day several students were asking the question every farmer loves to hear: how do I get to do this?
