Our Organic Wild Maine Blueberry Products

Highland Organics® introduces the first-ever
Organic Whole Plant Wild Maine Blueberry Tea and
Organic Blueberry Barque.

Our premium loose leaf tea is hand-crafted with the sun sweetened blueberry fruit of summer and the crimson-red blueberry leaves of fall. We combined both for a taste of wild Maine blueberries in every cup. Our whole plant blueberry tea is already naturally caffeine-free, so what could be better!

The Blueberry Barque (pronounced bark) is a truly wild Maine blueberry treat. No sugars, sulphites or oils added to this blueberry chip. Add it to yogurt, ice cream, salads, sweet breads, cereals instead of frozen blueberries. It is a taste of wild Maine blueberries in every bite!

Product Demonstrations in Maine Stores

As the new year presents itself, we are excited about the new opportunities to introduce our products to new stores. We will post where we will be doing demonstrations of the tea and barque so that you can take advantage of coming into these stores to have a taste of wild Maine blueberries for free!

Below is a list of the following stores that we will be at.

Stop in and say hello, we thank you for supporting the stores that support our farm.

Not more Snow!

Today we are preparing for another snow storm.

It is amazing to see the 22 acres of open fields blanketed with white and to know that under the blanket of white rests the blueberry plants. In my opinion, all this snow makes for a better crop. So while we humans might not care so much for all this snow, the blueberry plants are loving it.

In my limited experience, one thing I have noticed about the effects of our Maine seasons on the fields is this: less snow, poorer crop conditions; more snow, healthier crop conditions. Here's why.

When we have little to no snow during the cold winter months, the fields that are to produce fruit in the coming spring can sustain "winter kill". Essentially what happens is the cold freezes the tips of the blueberry plants, thus killing the dormant fruit buds. With a thick layer of snow covering the plants, it acts as an insulator for the hardy plants.

And come spring, we have more fruit buds that can be pollinated thereby producing more fruit.

So for you blueberry lovers living in this region of snow, snow, snow....think about the value all that snow has on the wild Maine blueberry plant. We do, (while we dream of warmer weather).

Happy Shoveling and Plowing!!
