Does anyone know if there are any blueberries grown in Door County?
There was an ad in the Advocate for Blueberry Haven, near
Clintonville, but if I can find a supplier closer to home, I'd prefer
that.

Pam, I don't know any large producer of blueberries up here. At least
north of the canal the ground doesn't have the right pH....too much
lime. There are a number of home gardeners (including myself) who are
raising blueberries. They grow well, provided they have their own
specific pH soil. I grow mine in pots, set into the ground, and apply
plenty of compost. From the three 1-year plants, I felt we had a
pretty yummy handful of big, juicy berries.
