Those look so good!! I worked a short time at a local blueberry farm. It was one of the most interesting jobs I've ever had. I worked in the office, but it was so neat to see the plants, pickers, processing and the perk was blueberries at the end of season. I have one package left in the freezer. This farm is only about three miles from where I live and I never knew it was there until I applied for the job.

Just adding I now think of all the work that goes in to getting those little plastic boxes of berries we buy at the grocery store.
These are the wild type a lot different picking then the tame ones (read below)!!!Thanks Carolyn
Yes, there is a world of difference. I've been there done that. :-)

These wee guys grow close to the ground there much harder to pick then the large tame ones & you also need to walk through much bush to find them,some people are afraid of the wild animals here but my son (a policeman)gave me mace to spray on anything thats gets to close ,all i ever see are bears & foxs they never bother you I just toot my car horn & they runHA!HA!Carolyn

Wow Carolyn I would be out picking to for that kind of moneys.
MY friend and I used to go out and find stuff to make jelly out of we were picking some elderberries on the ditch bank one time and the lady in the house down the road called the police on us said we were casing her house.Police came out and talked to us we told him we were just picking wild elder berrys.he said ok be careful.

That looks like a huge mountain of blueberry-muffins or pancakes or marmelade; do you have some hungry cuties near you to help? :o)
How long will your fingers have blue color? We have a walnuttree in the garden and I always try not to forgett the gloves; my fingers are dark brown for nearly a week after harvest ;o)

WOW, that is alot of blueberries dear Carolyn, it sure would make a bunch of blueberry pie - wouldn't it? I am assuming after all that work - that there is more of a reason than a pie for all of these? Great job.

That truly is a lot of blueberries - what are you going to do with them? My granddaughters picked blueberries this year - They both love them, and since we have to pay $5 a package for them here they got there fill of them for $1.50 LB. The fields were just down the street for them, and they could walk. This is about the only fruit that I have never acquired a taste for. But, hubby loves them, and we get them for him.
