We are feeling blue at GHWA. Time to get out and pick the ultra sweet Alaska blueberries. Hands down they are the best!
Feeling a bit blue today? If you're a wild Alaska blueberry, that's a good thing!
We've been hearing reports from around the Interior that blueberries are ripe, or very close. Alaska blueberries are high in antioxidants and can be eaten fresh, frozen, added to cakes and muffins and made into jellies, jams and syrups. They're an Alaska favorite.
Our free blueberry publications have instructions on how to clean and store blueberries, as well as some yummy recipes. We can't point you to a productive blueberry patch, but we're willing to learn where yours are!
