Blueberries are an excellent source of vitamin C. In fact, a serving contains about 14 mg or almost 25% of daily requirement for Vitamin C. Vitamin C is needed for the formation of collagen and to maintain healthy gums and capillaries. It also aids in the absorption of iron and promotes a healthy immune system. |

| Blueberry Benefits High in Antioxidants With just 80 delicious calories per cup and virtually no fat, blueberries offer us many important nutrition and health benefits. |
| Blueberry Acres was conceived in 2007 by Jarry and Sue Barton to provide an income for our retirement years. It made sense to us to grow highbush blueberries for many reasons. First and foremost is the overwhelming nutritional value and popularity of blueberries. Then, of course, the growing interest in buying local and getting the freshest food possible. And, finally, we are right in the middle of wild blueberry country so it was obvious to us the environment and soil must be good for growing blueberries. Blueberries are unique in the food industry in that they will live and produce fruit for up to 50 years. We specialize in very large high bush blueberries. These blueberries are varieties that are large, sweet and easy to pick! Our highbush blueberries are grown in rows that are cultivated to produce sweet and plump berries. When the berry is a deep blue color, they are ready to be carefully hand picked. We aren't just blueberries though... Jarry Barton creates the "Blueberry" brand of log furniture! Chairs, tables, bed frames, and more... (see furniture page) |
