Getting to know us: EBF Farms LLC was on of the earliest Blueberry farms started in Demotte, IN. John Sauer moved to this area in 1943 and brought with him six blueberry plants from Cedar Lake, IN and that was the beginning of blueberries in this area. Sauer became a licensed nurseryman and began to propagate and grow new plants which he planted on his farm and sold to others in the area. One of t
his who became interested in the blueberries was Ernest Eenigenburg who purchased plants from Mr. Sauer in 1948 and started a farm on the north side of Demotte. Sauer retired Ernest also bought his farm on the east side of Demotte and this began the businesses that have carried on into FIVE generations. Looking for something to do this summer?
