It’s no wonder that the blueberry is New Jersey’s official state fruit. They are nutritious, perfect for a snack, taste great in baked goods – and also grow low enough for even toddlers to pick.
You can bring the whole family to a pick-your-own farm. Picking usually starts mid-June, depending on the year, so be sure to call ahead before going.

Not sure what to do with the 10 pounds of blueberries you bring home? Keep them in the fridge for up to a week, then pop them in the freezer and thaw before eating. For a special treat during a heat wave, let your kids cool off by eating them frozen (cut them first for little ones to avoid a choking hazard).
