If you live near northwest Houston, try to get out to Chiemelewski's Blueberry Farm sometime in the next couple weeks. We picked almost 9 pounds today. It was a lovely day! Humid, of COURSE, but also overcast, so not very hot. They open at 7:30 and we were there before 8:30 (hard to get all the kids out the door in the morning, you know!) We enjoyed ourselves so much, the berries are delicious, and I'm so happy that we paid 2.50 a pound for our bounty!! When i checked at HEB last week, a dry pint was going for I believe 2.99. The dry pint is almost 1/4 pound, which means those grocery store berries cost $12/pound!!!!!

Last year the ladies there told us that they bought the property with the blueberries already planted on it, several (17?) years ago. That the blueberries thrive there, they think because the water on that land is the perfect acidity.

Anyway, a little gem right there in Hockley, TX, not far from Cypress, Houston, Waller, Hempstead, or even Brenham.
