We’re a family-owned business from Maine – home to moose, bears, lighthouses, rocky shores, and the perfect ecosystem for a remarkable fruit to grow in abundance: the Wild Blueberry. What’s so special about Wild Blueberries? They aren’t planted by man. They’ve been growing like a carpet in our glacial soils for over 10,000 years. After just one taste, we think you’ll agree that mother nature did some of her best work on these wild berries. And if that's not enough, they have up to 2x the antioxidant activity of ordinary blueberries. We’re on a mission to help people eat more healthy fruit. We’ve been in business since 1874 and, along the way, we’ve built relationships with like-minded partners to make an array of delicious, fruit forward products. Fruit is a true gift of nature, filled with both amazing flavor and an incredible spectrum of health benefits. Yet somehow in our busy lives, we never seem to eat enough each day. We’re not just a Frozen Fruit company. We're also developing an exciting array of innovative fruit products in convenient packaging, all geared towards making it easier for more people to eat healthy and delicious whole fruits. We hope you’ll give them a try!
