10 Varieties of Organic Blueberries
The wide variety of available blueberries at Stone Hill Blueberry Farm allows for a longer season than many farms. The earliest berries, the Weymoths start ripening towards the end of June, followed a few weeks later by the Earlyblues. The farm usually opens to the public when the Earlyblues are well ripened. This usually happens in Mid-July. The Mid-season berries start ripening during the end of July and August. The late berries--the Colvilles are the last to ripen and usually produce until first hard frost, sometime in mid-september. See below for a brief description of each berry type.
