These logs last 3 to 5 years with two harvests annually. The currently inoculated logs will automatically produce for the next several years. -Nursery Plant Revenue Stream: The blueberry bushes produce their own offspring. Pruned in February, they create a highly economical source of secondary income. A large supply of plastic nursery pots is included in the sale to support this branch. -Beehives & Raised Bed Extravaganza:The sale includes two established beehives, which serve as essential pollinators to guarantee high crop yields. Additionally, there are 20 fully soiled, low-maintenance galvanized raised beds for flowers, spices, and vegetables, beautifully surrounding a central pond built from repurposed stones from the property's original homestead. -Certified Jam Kitchen: The farm's homemade jam is wildly popular.
