“We love blueberry season! We eat them by the handful and we still can't get our fill!”

Gather Your Supplies

Ingredients and Equipment needed to freeze blueberries: blueberries, strainer, towels, freezer bags, marker.

Steps 3 & 4

It is important to label the berries with the date you freeze them. Time to place all the dry blueberries in the freezer bags you have prepared for freezing.
