Out in the wilderness are where the best blueberries live. A great introductory berry to forage, share and enjoy.
While we went minnow trapping this week, we noticed that wild blueberry season is starting and we were able to pick a few for muffins, pancakes and handfuls. They will be in full swing in the upcoming weeks, be sure to watch for them at markets, fruit stands and in the brush of wilderness - they love growing in open, sunny areas where trees have been cleared. What is your favourite way to enjoy blueberries?
