A Blueberry Weekend

Ah, the wonderful blueberry. With a wide variety of cultivars, this fruit bearing bush is hearty from the southern United States up through parts of southern Canada. High in vitamin C, vitamin K, fiber and Manganese (from nutritiondata.com) , and easy to grow and store, the blueberry may be very near the most perfect fruit.

Growing form ranges from short, squat bushes to tall, narrow treelike constructs. Whether you have a small back yard or a few thousand acres, a few blueberry bushes are perfect additions to your garden.

Throughout this weekend I will post information and recipes about and with the fabulous blueberry. Stay tuned!
