More Blueberries!

We love blueberries. Blueberry muffins, pancakes, bread, on yogurt, ice-cream or oatmeal! Normally, I buy a big box of blueberries from our Farmer’s Market and freeze them for the year, but this year we decided to try and pick our own.

I had planted two blueberry bushes last fall and though they are a beautiful pink and green bush and produced some white bell-shaped flowers we have nothing to show for them yet. So, off to blueberry picking we went!

We drove about an hour south to a blueberry and Christmas tree farm “Tannem Treeberry Farm” and were astonished at how big and beautiful the blueberry covered bushes were on what seemed to be endless acres of the farm.

The kids each had a bucket and, unlike apple picking, had berries right at their height and quickly filled up their buckets (and bellies) many times over! We brought home over 6lbs of blueberries and beautiful memories.
