Ed Flanagan, Wyman’s President said flat out...no bees, no blueberries, and Wymans’s is taking a stand to help. They testified at a Congressional hearing in support of increased USDA funding last June, and now have made this substantial donation. The company has also issued a call to action for consumers, noting a portion of their wild blueberry purchases will be used to fund that commitment.

 Wyman’s of Maine has been growing and marketing wild blueberries for over 125 years. Still family owned, they harvest berries from over 10,000 acres of their own wild blueberry barrens and from the coastal hills, ridge lines and fields of other Wyman growers from Maine, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and PEI. With a focus on sustainable food, the company’s tag line is “Recommended by Future Generations” Find out more at www.Wymans.com.
