Two winters ago the rats chewed all the fruiting wood off my
blueberry plants. I will harvest one hanfull of ripe blueberries soon
if the Robins and Cedar Waxwings stay away. If I had a good crop of
berries, I would make a huge blueberry pie and smother it with whipped
cream. There would be fresh berries floating on top of the whipped
cream. I would also make some pots of blueberry jam for next winter.
