Join fellow blueberry industry members as we embark on a journey to explore the Chilean blueberry growing regions. There is no better time to visit and learn more about this growing region. Come see how Chile is handling challenges like rising supply and embracing opportunities.
Chile has over 18,000 hectares of highbush blueberries planted and an ongoing commitment to finding new and better varieties. You will see this firsthand and have ample opportunities to get to know fellow blueberry experts with boots on the ground in Chile. What will the Chilean blueberry industry look like five years from now? You’ve got to be there to find out!
For more details, keep reading and make sure to secure your seat today as this trip is limited to 40 people!
