There’s more to the blue in blueberries than meets the eye!

That beautiful deep-blue colour comes from anthocyanins, naturally occurring plant compounds that contribute to blueberries’ colour and antioxidant activity.

In fact, research has identified 14 major anthocyanins in highbush blueberries. Just another reason these little berries are so remarkable!

Discover the science behind the magic of BC blueberries.

Bring something BLUE to the table this Thanksgiving! 🫐🍂

Looking for a little Thanksgiving inspiration? Here are three ways to make blueberries part of your celebration:

🫐 Start with something savoury: Blueberry & Goat Cheese Flatbread for a delicious appetizer.

🫐 Give your main course a twist: Blueberry Relish adds the perfect sweet-tart balance to turkey and roasted vegetables.

🫐 End on a sweet note: Nothing brings people together quite like a warm, homemade Blueberry Pie.

This Thanksgiving, celebrate good food, great company, and the delicious possibilities of BC blueberries.

Which one would you bring to your Thanksgiving table? Tell us in the comments! 💙
