Josh Pond sits near the northeast coast of Maine, one of the last places in North America where the wild blueberry flourishes. Unlike its cultivated off-shoot, this low-bush variety can't be planted. With the help of bees, its underground runners carry it across the rugged landscape.
•Wild blueberries are special for their nutritional value and taste. Wild blueberries have twice the antioxidant power of planted blueberries and 50% less sugar. As far as taste, wild blueberries are much smaller than their conventional counterpart because they are not pumped up with water. Thus they maintain a firmer skin texture and a stronger blueberry flavor.
•Though most operations use mechanical harvesters to maximize volume, we still cling to the traditional method of raking blueberries by hand in the early morning when they are coldest and least likely to bruise.
