I wanted to clarify the flood damage situation to the Norris blueberry field. In the map, the area circled in red is a new planting from spring of 2024 that was heavily damaged in the flood. The area circled in yellow is where the main Norris Blueberry farm is. The area in yellow was not heavily damaged, if at all, from the flood. New plantings of blueberries typically take several years to come into production, so while this is a major expense and setback for the Norris crew, it will not effect this year's blueberry production. From the Norris Blueberry Farms Facebook page: "Thanks for the concern and kind words regarding the damage from the recent flood. Norris Farms did suffer significant damage in our newly planted fields on Curry Lane. We are working to assess the extent of the damage and salvage what we can for replanting. Don't worry though, while some of our other fields have minor harm, we are still on track for a great season. There will be blueberries!"
Good to know Norris Blueberry Farms are still going to be able to provide their delicious blueberries!

Since they're new to the neighborhood, I'll keep working on them to understand it's Quail LANE and Curry ROAD...

Quail Lane and Curry Road are both in RIVERSDALE. It's not Garden Valley until you cross Browns Bridge!
