Back to Wisconsin, my cheesehead friends

Blueberry Picking

2 Comments

I traveled to Super Acres Blueberry Farm in Lyme, NH with my colleagues from work to pick blueberries. This was my first you-pick blueberry experience. Blueberries are easy to pick because they grow on 5 to 8 foot tall bushes, meaning you get to spend a lot of time in the shade and pick berries standing up. No bending and straining your back for blueberries.

With our berries, I made blueberry jam (3 lbs, 10 half-pints), blueberry buckle (1.5 lbs) and ate the rest with breakfast. I think we may go back again and pick more for the freezer.

Super Acres farm is also dog-friendly, so I can take the pooch with too!

  1. Ok, so what do I have to do to convince you to give me a jar of blueberry jam???
    Want to trade blueberry recipes? I’ve got one for blueberry ginger pie that is basically summer in a pastry crust!
