More than 98% of that production happens in just 10 states, spanning the country from coast to coast: Oregon, Washington, Georgia, Michigan, California, New Jersey, North Carolina, Florida, Texas and Minnesota.

International Boost of Blue

In Canada, British Columbia is the primary producing region for blueberries. South of the U.S., Peru is the largest producing country, followed by Chile, Mexico and Argentina. These farmers play a crucial role in keeping fresh blueberries on grocery store shelves throughout the year, especially during our winter months.
