Handling & Freezing Instructions

Fully ripe berries are best for fresh use. Refrigerate as soon as possible. Do not wash berries before storing or freezing. Blueberries have a natural wax coating for protection, and this helps extend their shelf life. To freeze berries simply bag and place in the freezer. Roll out the amount you need when ready to use. To thaw frozen berries, let sit in warm tap water a few minutes. Wash berries when ready to use.
