How to pick like a pro

  • Is it ripe?

    Strawberries are ready when fully red to the stem. Blueberries should be deep blue with no red at the stem end; ripe ones roll off into your palm. Blackberries are ripe when dull black, not shiny.

  • How to pick

    Pinch strawberries off with a bit of stem so they keep longer. Cup blueberry clusters and roll with your thumb. Pick into shallow containers so the bottom layer is not crushed.

  • Best time to go

    Early morning, before the heat softens fruit and picked-over rows fill up.

  • Keep it fresh

    Do not wash until you eat them. Refrigerate in a single layer; most berries keep 2 to 5 days.
