NH Blueberry Farms – You Pick – Berry Picking Tips
It is fairly obvious how the blueberry received its name, but just for the record, it’s due to the blue coloring of the fruit. Blueberries were first appreciated by the native Americans, who would dry them for much needed nutrition in the long, hard winter months. They were also used to heal various maladies such as morning sickness, headaches and cough. The first time these precious little berries were commercially harvested was during the Civil War, when they were canned and sent to Union soldiers. New Hampshire blueberries may not be as famous as those in Maine but taste equally delicious – or even better claim some NH Blueberry Growers. NH grown blueberries ripen in mid summer. There are dozens of NH Blueberry Farms. NH Living has organized Blueberry PYO Farms by region. The find a NH Blueberry Farm near you follow the links below.
