WHY GO WILD?

Most blueberries you will find in the grocery store are cultivated blueberries. Over the years, they have been cultivated to be larger in size and very plump, due to a higher water content, which makes them cheaper when compared to wild blueberries. 

Cultivated blueberries contain less antioxidants and anthocyanins than wild, which is probably due to their high water content. 

Wild blueberries are smaller, tighter and called low-bush blueberries since they grow closer to the ground and spread by rhizomes. They are more flavoursome, contain more antioxidants, phytonutrients and anthocyanins than cultivated blueberries.
