My family moved to Missouri when I was 9, and some of my favorite childhood memories are heading to the nearest “U-Pick” farm, spending hours out in the blueberry fields filling our baskets, and leaving with even fuller bellies from all the snacking we did along the way. These days I do most of my berry shopping at the grocery store, but I’m already looking forward to when Phoebe’s old enough for us to head out to a berry farm and spend the day. There’s just something about picking them yourself that makes berries taste even better! In honor of blueberries being peak-of-season right now, we rounded up our 10 favorite ways to use them. Click through for lots of summery inspiration, and leave a comment sharing any must-have berry recipes you love to cook up when the season strikes!
