Harvest of the Month
Blueberry
Blueberries are plump, juicy, and sweet berries that grown on bell-shaped, white, pale pink or red flowers.
They are a very good source of:
- Vitamin K
- Vitamin C
- Manganese, fiber, and copper
Knowledge is Power!
- Do not rinse your blueberries until immediately before use. This helps to extend the shelf life of blueberries.
- Blueberries retain their maximum amount of nutrients and taste when enjoyed fresh. The nutrients are damaged at high heat used in baking.
