Care for Blueberries

  • Blueberries stay fresh in the refrigerator for over a week. 

  • Don't rinse the berries before storing them.

  • It is best to allow the berries some ventilation in the refrigerator.

  • Remember that berries are easily smashed, so avoid packing them under other items without protection.

Freezing Instructions

  •  Don't rinse the berries before storing them.

  • To freeze blueberries sort out any debris, let them air dry if they are wet (setting them under a ceiling fan helps them to dry faster), place the berries in a freezer bag or container, and freeze.

  • Rinse the berries when you remove them from the freezer.

  • If you prefer to wash your berries before freezing, let them air dry before packing them into freezer bags or containers.
