The Northstar Blueberry is shaped by the heritage varietals we grow, the nutrient rich clay loam soil and elevation of our fields, the climate of upstate New York, the history of our farm, our farming practices, and the hard work of our farming team.

Plump, large, firm, and bursting with crisp, punchy flavor, Northstar Blueberries are a combination of three heritage varietals:

• Bluecrop This heritage variety was introduced in the early 40’s in New Jersey. It’s a midseason variety that produces big clusters of light blue, medium size, firm berries. It has classic sweet taste with good sub-acid flavor.
• Blueray This heritage variety was introduced in the 50’s in New Jersey. It’s a midseason variety that produces dark blue, large, firm berries with extra-sweet aromatic flavor.
• Patriot This variety was developed by the USDA, and introduced in the mid 70’s in Maine. It’s an early-midseason variety that produces deep blue, large, firm berries with lovely flavor.
