Dedicated to creating and caring for a better berry, Dr. Eric Gerbrandt’s research takes him from the fields of his Yarrow farm to labs and conferences around the world. It’s part of what has won him the Distinguished Alumni Award from University of the Fraser Valley (UFV) last year.
Gerbrant has been leading the BC berry research portfolio as Research Director with the BC Blueberry Council, Raspberry Industry Development Council, and BC Strawberry Growers’ Association since 2018. He also owns and operates Sky Blue Horticulture, his living laboratory for developing the most efficient production practices and identifying the most desirable fruits possible through horticultural research and variety trials.
