RUBEL BLUEBERRY BEST 

 FOR FREEZING 



In response to hundreds of inquiries 

 for best blueberry variety for freezing, 

 we can report, that large commercial 

 processors prefer the Rubel. They claim 

 it holds up longer and does not mush 

 on being defrosted. 



All varieties of Blueberries however 

 are well adapted for quick-freezing in 

 home units.
