July--National Blueberry Month
Posted by Ann Wildes at
July is National Blueberry Month! Celebrate this exciting month with a handful of delicious Georgia blueberries. If any fruit deserved its own month for celebrating it is these "little blues". The blueberry is Georgia’s number one fruit crop and has a high economic and nutritional value for our state. Blueberries have multiple health benefits and can prevent diseases and increase our overall health. If you live in one of the other states that produces blueberries, then eat those too! The blueberry may be small, but it’s no youngster. Botanists estimate blueberries burst onto the scene more than 13,000 years ago!...
