Proposing to Open on Saturday, August 9th

My return from travel the first half of July was bitter sweet: brought a nasty sickness that I am slowly recovering from and observed what seems to be a pretty good blueberry crop on the horizon. The outlook is for better yields than the last two years. We have been getting rain, but we still need some regular precipitation if the berries are going to ripen completely.

We anticipate a week later opening than normal. Local strawberries were about a week later than average and whatever caused their slow start (probably the cool start to summer) has likewise affected the rate of maturation of the blueberries.

August 9th is a pretty safe bet, and hopefully the crop will be enough to sustain a few weeks of picking.
