Why have blueberries become so popular, and what will the future bring for this rising star in the fresh produce department?
It’s a product that’s undergone a remarkable transformation over the past two decades, evolving from a niche, seasonal fruit into a year-round staple and one of the fastest-growing categories in fresh produce.
In this exclusive interview, Fruitnet’s Mike Knowles sits down with Cort Brazelton, CEO of Fall Creek Farm & Nursery, to talk about the past, present and future of blueberries.
Together, they explore the key drivers behind the fruit’s surge in popularity, and the challenges that lie ahead for what remains a rapidly growing industry.
