Midwest Blueberry Picking
Michigan is one of the top blueberry-producing states in the country, and the fruit belt along Lake Michigan's eastern shore has built its identity around the crop for well over a century, helped enormously by the lake's moderating effect on the local climate. Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, and Wisconsin all support smaller highbush farms concentrated on the sandier, more acidic soils within their borders, while Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, and the Dakotas see only limited, soil-amended production given their generally heavier or more alkaline ground.
