Inside America's Wild Blueberry Harvest

#explorenature #gardendesign #people

A Maine family farm waits two years for a single wild blueberry harvest, only to have it vanish in days.

We joined a multi-generational team to document the intense pressure of this wild blueberry harvest. Because these berries are never planted and grow naturally across the land, the operation relies on a razor-thin window of opportunity. It is a fragile, high-stakes race against time that tests the patience of a family committed to preserving their legacy for a sixth generation.
