Varieties 
It is an accepted fact that all varieties do not do equally well in all loca- 
tions or with all growers. Selections should be made of an early, mid-season 
and a late variety to insure the greatest number of picking days during the 
natural fruiting season. Individual taste is another factor to consider, as well 
as your liking for color. One should also consider the disposition of the sur- 
plus crop and whether you will preserve them or freeze them. All berries will 
preserve well but not all varieties freeze equally well. For that reason we always 
mention this characteristic in the description of varieties. All of the varieties 
we Offer are of the highest eating quality that are best adapted to our New Eng- 
land states. When asked which is the best variety, I answer there is no best, 
they are just like women, all good but we each like one better than the rest. 
You must find the ones you like best.
