Blueberry Picking in Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana
East Texas has the state's real blueberry country, with sandier, more acidic soil than the Hill Country supporting a genuine rabbiteye and highbush industry, while eastern Oklahoma's better rainfall and soil acidity, compared to the drier west, support a smaller but real crop. Louisiana's blueberry farms cluster in the hill country north of the Mississippi River delta, where drainage and soil conditions favor the bushes far more than the flatter land to the south.
Best Time for Blueberry Picking in Louisiana
