Wild Blueberry Heritage Center
Formerly Wild Blueberry Land and built to resemble a giant blueberry, the museum's deep-blue geodesic dome is home to exhibits about the beloved crop that focus on the native plant’s ecosystem; the canning of the fruit during the Civil War to help feed soldiers; local blueberry farmers; and research efforts to improve what is a managed wild crop. There's a blueberry-themed gift shop that sells items with a wild Maine blueberry theme or design like scented candles and blueberry socks; books about the crop and the culture it feeds; and foods featuring or made from the fruit such as Maine wild blueberry jam, vinegar, and chocolate truffles.
