Blueberries
Delicious and nutritious - blueberries are truly one of nature's miracle foods. These berries are high in antioxidants and other compounds that help prevent heart disease and cancer, help brain and memory functions, and slow the effects of aging. When it comes to fruits containing antioxidants, blueberries are the "leader of the pack". The type of antioxidants found in blueberries have a different chemical structure compared with other common antioxidants such as Vitamin C that makes them three to four times more potent.

At Hazen's Blueberry Farm we offer only the highest quality of blueberrries - varieties include:
Bluecrop - considered the best all around variety for adaptability, consistent yields, high quality fruit and disease resistance. Bluecrop is perhaps the most widely planted variety in the U.S.
Blueray - an old favorite and versatile variety, Blueray performs particularly well in areas with hot summers or very cold winters, and produces high quality berries with outstanding dessert flavor.
Jersey - one of the oldest and most widely grown of all varieties, Jersey is a favorite for farmers wanting a bush that produces heavy late season crops year after year. This bush tolerates a wide range of soil types, and the small to medium sized, sweet tasting fruit is a favorite for baking
Raspberries
A summer favorite, raspberries rank as the third most popular berry in the United States for fresh use, after strawberries and blueberries. Raspberries come in red, black, purple and yellow varieties. Summer-bearing varieties produce one crop between July and August. Fall-bearing raspberries grow a large crop in the fall and a small crop the following summer. Raspberries grown on the farm include:
Red Raspberries - Heritage: the “flagship” of all fall bearing red raspberries is consistently rated highest in productivity, flavor & firmness. The berry is medium to large in size, slightly cone shaped, brilliant red, very firm with an excellent deep flavor. Autumn Bliss: it's most productive month is September. The berry is medium in size, mid to dark red with a pleasant flavour and good keeping qualities.
