Blueberries...

Fresh Picked Happiness...Florida’s Best

When people think of the Sunshine State, they think of Disney World, orange groves and the beach. What they do not know is that the state is also known for its production of blueberries! Over the past 20 years, the state’s blueberry industry has grown quickly, with over 5,200 acres of land dedicated to growing these small but mighty berries.

Blueberries are one of the most healthy, simple, and delicious fruit known for a lot of health benefits.

Locally in Hernando, Pasco, and Citrus counties, there are several “Pick-your-own” blueberry farms. Many of these locations are strictly blueberry farms, providing the best quality blueberries in the region.
