I’ve wanted to make this video for a very long time. It’s finally here! (I’ll talk more about wild blueberries in a second, but first some BTS)

The inspiration for this video came from the work of @jklovett and their USA vs. South Korea series. I immediately knew that I wanted to adapt this concept for grocery store vs wild food. Justin and Koheun, if you ever see this video, I just want to express thanks and admiration for your incredible series!

This is the first video in a new series called “Grocery vs. Wild.” What food would you like to see next?? (Okay, on to blueberries)

Timing is really important with wild blueberries. If you want to know when to look for their fruit AND flowers, check out my Interactive Forager’s Calendar 📅 (link in my bio)!

We could have a lot more wild blueberries than we do. Unfortunately, due to invasive species, habitat destruction, and fire suppression, there are far fewer left compared to what we used to have. I’ve been trying to improve my propagation skills lately in order to promote these amazing species even more.

Have you ever eaten real wild blueberries before

As someone who grew up surrounded by wild blueberry bushes in Appalachies, I will agree that they have WAY more flavor and my personal favorite, but they might not taste better for everyone. Here are the differences.

Wild blueberries are much more sour, weirdly have less of the 'blueberry flavor', and are more uniform in taste from berry to berry. They are wonderful to eat fresh if you like sour flavors, but might be overwhelming to some. They are great in baked goods because of their small size and uniformity. They also get sweeter when cooked but still hold a sour note.

Store blueberries are very very sweet, and the texture of berries is smoother, less juicy. Because the berries are all picked at once off a bush, not all are ripe when picked. This makes the berries range in flavor drastically. The large, more bell-shaped berry limits how many can fit in a muffin or loaf of bread. So, it's better popping in the mouth fresh as opposed to being baked, in my opinion.

It really depends on what you want or what you like.

I'm from Maine, wild is SO MUCH BETTER! Brah there's no comparison. I hate the grocery store ones, so flavorless, and deceiving. Maine wild blueberries are FULL of flavor! Like a tiny burst of the sweetest gel. Earths candy.

Yes, I have. As a kid they grew wild in my favorite stretch of forest. Yup, ours were in the forest. I guess they must have found patches of sun in between the leaves. Though, it was very near the Wisconsin River so they probably got some morning sun underneath the canopy of the trees.

My Grandma and two of her sisters used to take my brother and I wild berry picking up on Trembleau, on the shores of Lake Champlain. They would regale us with stories of bears in the berry patch, their trek into Cold River to visit Noah John Rondeau, and other adventures. The berries were so good, I used to like to eat them in a bowl with a little cream and sugar, and the pies and pancakes were delicious too. I grow blueberries now but they're not the same. I do have one cultivar called Friendship, the berries are smaller than most and dark blue, ripening now (in WNC) that's close to wild berry flavor. I miss the wild berries and the simpler times.

Great short, blueberries are one of the most potent super-foods on the planet. Thanks for the info on foraging!

There is nothing better than some campfire side oatmeal with freshly picked wild blueberries on a sunny morning out in the woods

I have stained my hands purple many a time picking huckleberries. I love the sweet tart taste of the delicious little berries.

I love wild blueberries but huckleberry will always be my favorite.
As a kid in Montana we used to spend lots of time in the wilderness as my parents picked them for money. Then we'd go to Forks, WA and pick ferns for money and sometimes mushrooms.
Wild berries are so good. Since i was little i like to eat them frozen in a bowl of milk and sugar. Blueberry/huckleberry/blackberry milk is amazing ❤❤❤❤

We found wild blueberries growing on the forest floor in our woods. It was too shaded for them to produce fruit, so we transplanted them in a sunny area of our front garden. They are delicious and prolific! My children love to just sit in the middle of the bushes and feast on them. ❤️

I had a few fortunate finds too. In mid spring i was walking in the woods,and found a small patch of land where some wild strawberries,raspberries and blackberries grow. And i am planning to take a few cuttings from the raspberries and the blackberries to grow them at home in our garden.

Having all 3, huckleberry, blue huckleberry, and lowbush blueberry in my back yard which is all pine barrens just growing wild, blue huckleberry is by far my favorite. Sure, they have larger hard seeds, but their tartness and how much flavor they have in comparison just does it for me

Went on holiday with the in law's a yr ago in Barry's Bay (at the south end of Algonquin Park) We stayed at this cabin AirBnB that had a lil dock leading to a teeny tiny island on the lake - there was plenty of native plants, reeds, pine trees, and wild blueberries all over it. We harvested over 100 blueberries within the max 15 metre island and decided to leave the rest, the combo of sand, pine needles, and root structure of native plants seemed to let them thrive. The sweeter berries were in the sun and the lesser in the shade, def gives me ideas on how to grow them alongside other plants at home

Great timung! I have a pot of wild blueberry jam cooking on the stove. It is easy to make (no added pectin required) and family favorite with hot biscuits.

Found some growing on Mt. Major in NH.

They seem to have a light blue coating on them until you touch them & it rubs of on your fingers.
