Blueberry crop delayed by cool weather - Muskegon News
WEST MICHIGAN -- West Michigan blueberry lovers may be yearning to pick the delectable fruit, but the cold winter and cool spring temperatures have bumped the normal picking period back a bit for some farms and made it nearly impossible at others.

This is the week that farmers usually open up their fields to customers for blueberry gathering, termed "U-pick." However, the cold weather may keep the berry enthusiasts at home a little longer than usual.

Most farmers managed to elude crop damage this winter, but a few farms in southwestern Michigan experienced major crop loss. One farmer in Paw Paw reported that he lost 70 percent of his early crop and half of his entire crop due to sub-zero January temperatures.
