What to do with your blueberries when you get home 

• When leaving the farm, leave the plastic bag open if possible so the berries will not sweat.
  

• Once you are home, lay your berries out on a towel to dry and you can pick through them for any nature or leaves you brought home.
  
• We suggest you do not wash until ready to eat.
  

• Place them in a single layer sheet pan and freeze. Remove them and place in ziplock bags.
  

• Blueberries will keep for a long time in the freezer if properly frozen.
  

• For information about Blueberry bushes, please look at UGA Publications. You can find information about blueberries and an assortment of helpful publications for your home and garden.
  

• Did you know - Blueberries not only taste great, but they're also a good source of vitamin C, iron, and fiber. They're cholesterol-free, sodium-free, and an important source of potassium. Best of all, blueberries contain only 80 calories per cup.
