What's that you say??? What's the difference in a huckelberry and a blue berry?? Well according to the dictionary, a huckelberry is: "any genus of the heath family bearing dark-blue berries......loosley a blueberry". So there you have it.......a huckelberry and a blue berry are one and the same. In Louisiana, the woods are filled with wild huckelberrys. They produce fruit like crazy and the birds, squirrels, and boys love them. In the fall the leaves turn a real pretty red and add so much to the beauty of the landscape. Yep, the huckelberry is a cherished memeber of our native forests.
