Wow @ 2:11 look at the volume! Holy crap Rick what didn't you get to experience in LIFE! OMG @ 5:05 YUM YUM YUM I can't hit the Thumbs UP Button more than once C'MON
As a vegan that eats a lot of fruit, I was thinking the same thing about the blueberry stairway to heaven! I picked blueberries over the summer for my stash, (about 25lbs). I loved doing it. I was so slow though. Prolly only would have made $2 an hour if I was picking for the farm. Ha ha!
And I thought Sudbury had a lot of wild blueberries! But in Nova Scotia, do you have to brave the chance upon being devoured by a bear while picking the small patches over the Canadian Shield? I don't think so! 🤣
Why are the blueberry bushes so small? The ones I remember picking from, admittedly when I was like 7-9 at Camp Pembina in QC were much bigger. Of course, they weren't on a blueberry farm either. Just smack in the middle of a small section of woods
RainAngel111 Hate to tell you but the low bush wild blue berries from the maritimes are prefered by bakeries due to the fact they have more taste then your big culitvated BC berries.
Tried blueberries from other parts of Canada and the US... Not even close to wild low bush blueberries in Nova Scotia - they are the sweetest and most flavourful, by far. Having lived in Oxford, NS and my family still owns land for blueberry farming, it's good to see such a vibrant demand for this variety of blueberry!
+Joshua Pearce my family lives in China, China makes everything, and everything is still damn expensive for them. Almost nothing is cheaper in the place something is made, because they are not going to drop the price of a valuable good. Why sell it for cheap when people will still buy it for much more
I love how Rick has made me so proud of my home country Canada! :)
Rick you are so funny! Thanks for sharing. Love Nova Scotia blueberries!
“I was trained to run into the woods”. Lol lol lol
RMR Blueberry Ice cream with wild blueberrys = Heaven!!!
My summer employment for grade 7 and 8 was raked blueberries in Oxford, Nova Scotia at 7 cents a pounds.
Wild blueberries are the best. When they're small, they're tart and delicious.
the young fella at 3:18 is wondering ....... who is this guy ??? he probably never watches or listens to CBC .

I live in nova scotia, so why are blueberries so darned expensive?
Because your paying for the farmers labour.
