Moby on the blueberry barrens.serious

            We live in the state of Maine. These are blueberry barrens where the state of Maine harvests wild low bush blueberries. After the blueberries are harvested the barrens turn red in the fall. There are so many different shades of red from this deep color to bright scarlet red. We love driving through the barrens in the fall. So of course we need a photo of Moby in the barrens. Something new this year is the presence of wind turbines......

Growing cycle: Blueberries are grown in a two-year cycle, with pruning in the first year and blooming and fruiting in the second.
