==Founder==
Dick Byne graduated from Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College in 1973, and completed his bachelor’s degree in Agriculture at the University of Georgia. He used land he inherited from his family to start Byne Blueberry Farms in 1980. In 2002, he steered Byne Blueberry Farms to the production of over fifteen blueberry specialty products such as blueberry jam, jelly, butter, preserves, chow chow, chutney, syrup, honey, and also blueberry jalapeño jelly.〔Profile: richard and linda byne. (n.d.). Retrieved from http://books.google.com/books?id=XCAWAmg2HgAC&pg=PA229&lpg=PA229&dq=1980+Dick+Byne&source=bl&ots=BQhuhbzqJI&sig=NvIwpd4g2y_mf5LcZus9aqDaRus&hl=en&ei=N880TMCJAYH98Aa9t9XJCw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=4&ved=0CB4Q6AEwAw#v=onepage&q=1980%20Dick%20Byne&f=false〕 Dick Byne says, “You know organic farming is nothing new.” “That’s how most farms were managed before World War II. We started growing organically because it was what I had learned in school, and it made sense economically, and again, it fit into what we thought would be a trend of people wanting to eat healthier, without chemicals in their food.”〔Banks, R. (2010). The Accidental organic farmer. Retrieved from http://digitaledition.qwinc.com/publication/index.php?i=38791&m=&l=&p=10〕 He also says it is important to give the soil as much organic matter as possible. “The more organic matter you have, the more the soil holds nutrients, and the more it holds water”.〔Geering, D. (2010, June). True blue. 34-35.〕
