Depends on where you live, and it's a short season wherever. For example,
in Georgia it's July. In Maine it's August. I usually buy frozen wild
blueberries (they're smaller) and they make a delicious topping or pie.
Some of the really large cultivated blueberries are just too large for my
taste. They tend to be gritty.
