What do blueberries have to do with climate change? OK, I can't really think of anything, except that some people have expressed concerns during state hearings about the impact of warming on berry crops. Two weeks ago, I was surprised to see ripe berries during a hike, and everyone I've talked to since seems to agree they're ready early this year. Which is just fine with me. Here's from about an hour's picking, the first half of which was spent just looking for the right spot. I'll honor the Alaska tradition of not saying where I found them . . .Expect a bumper crop of cranberries this year, too.
