I had some of the best blueberries I've tasted in years this past weekend when we visited the North Carolina mountains about 5 hours northwest of here. The soil and altitude must make a difference. They seemed much sweeter and more flavorful than the berries we get down here.<br /><br />I'm so jealous of your garden output!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12512800812290518552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-83580155801041815552019-06-25T05:11:24.341+01:002019-06-25T05:11:24.341+01:00I shall start a jam factory!I shall start a jam factory!Cro Magnonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06840670227576695352noreply@blogger.com
