Blueberries

We got the Blues…

…and we couldn't be happier.

Wild blueberries are natural and healthy and we have them in abundance. We eat them fresh; we put them in pies and jams. We make them into mustards and salad dressings and combine them with chocolate. We rake them and then we celebrate them. In fall we savor their scarlet red foliage. We ski around the barrens in the winter and curl up by the fire with a glass of blueberry wine. They are part of our heritage, our livelihood and our life. Come get the blues too!
