Blueberries are becoming more readily available. Although the Mexican season is moving past peak production, California’s San Joaquin Valley season is ramping up, and East Coast growers are shipping out of Georgia and Florida. Raspberry and blackberry supplies remain steady overall, but rising temperatures are beginning to impact quality in some areas.
