It turns out that our blueberry bushes have been flourishing, so I've been periodically going around to pick them in order to encourage them to make more berries. It appears to be working, and I have a little over 2 cups worth now with more that'll be ready to be picked in a few days. I also make sure to leave a few for the birds whenever I go out picking them.
If I get enough I might just make a pie for our family shindig this Saturday. The recipe I looked up would need 5 cups, so I figure another day like today and I'll be almost set. But yeah, if you want locally grown you can't get much more local than your own backyard.
And before anyone asks yes, I did wash them and pick out the bad ones.
