About This Template

Invest in perennial fruit with this dedicated berry patch. Blueberry bushes anchor the corners with their long productive life, raspberries line the back with trellis support, and strawberries carpet the front for easy picking. Once established, this garden produces pounds of fresh berries every summer with minimal annual work. Borage companions attract pollinators to improve berry yields.
