"Since we all can't travel to Maine right now, I'm going to bring a little piece of Maine to you with my friends @VisitMaine and @thefeedfeed! (#ad) Today, I spent the day baking with @wymansfruit frozen wild blueberries. Wyman’s of Maine has been proudly family owned in Maine since 1874 and have a variety of frozen fruits that are the perfect addition to smoothies, baking, cooking or just by themselves!
Not only do wild blueberries have 2x the antioxidant activity as ordinary blueberries but frozen is actually fresher! By freezing the wild blueberries within 24 hours of harvesting allows the berries to maintain their ripeness and taste.
