Consult your local agricultural agent or nurseryman.
They require acidic soil, mulching with pine needles lets in air and water but suppresses weeds. You need to have more than 1 variety for best results.
They are a favorite of birds and deer, so you'll need to place netting on them, once the berries start to ripen. Planting borage nearby will attract pollinators.
Be prepared to water if you don't tecive sufficient rain.
