Blueberries

Sweet and rich in flavour, it’s no surprise that the blueberry is fast becoming almost as popular as the strawberry.

Our blueberries are grown on our farm in Herefordshire, as well as on farms in Chile, Argentina, Spain and Poland.

A handful of fresh blueberries can liven up any breakfast and makes a tasty snack. Take a look at some of our favourite blueberry recipes.

Care and Handling

For maximum freshness, please keep your blueberries refrigerated after purchase and away from sources of moisture and direct sunlight, however the berries should be washed just before eating.

To enjoy the full flavour, it is best to let the berries warm to room temperature.

For home freezing, gently wash the berries in cold water & pat dry with paper towel. Spread the berries out in a single layer on a tray, place in the freezer. Once frozen the berries can be tipped into airtight containers before returning to the freezer.
