Pure Wild Blueberry, From Field to Pouch

What is the difference between a wild blueberry and a cultivated blueberry. Firstly wild blueberries are generally the native lowbush species Vaccinium angustifolium. Unlike conventional row-planted highbush blueberries, wild lowbush plants establish naturally forming a groundcover across managed wild fields ideally in the Northern regions of Canada. 

Research has indicated that Wild growing blueberries are generally considered healthier than regular cultivated blueberries because they contain twice the antioxidants, more fibre, and less sugar per serving. 

Nutritional Differences

  • Higher Antioxidants: Wild blueberries have up to double the antioxidant capacity (specifically anthocyanins) because their smaller size means a higher
  • More Fibre and Less Sugar: A serving of wild blueberries provides roughly 72% more fibre and about 32% less sugar than regular highbush blueberries. 
  • More Vitamins in Regular Berries: Regular cultivated blueberries do have an advantage in vitamin C content, offering a bit more per serving than wild types. 

 Why They Differ: 

  • Growing Climate: Wild blueberries adapt to harsh northern climates and poor glacial soils (primarily in Maine and Canada), which triggers the plant to produce more protective phytonutrients. 

Soul Organics Wild Blueberry Powder is made from the whole wild blueberry—not merely juice or an isolated extract. This is important because keeping the whole berry intact means that once it is dried to powder it retains components from:

  • The deeply pigmented skin
  • The fruit pulp
  • Naturally occurring berry fibre
  • The berry’s mixture of plant compounds

The Berry

Wild lowbush blueberries are naturally smaller and more intensely coloured than conventional cultivated blueberries. Their deep blue-purple skins contain naturally occurring anthocyanin pigments that give the berries their characteristic colour.

Purity and Provenance

Made from 100% organic whole wild blueberries grown in northern Canada. No fillers, processing solvents, added sugar, preservatives, artificial flavours or colours.

From Fresh Fruit to Powder

Approximately 3.5kg of fresh wild blueberries are used to create every 500g pouch. Much of the fruit’s natural water is gently removed, creating a concentrated, nutrient dense whole-fruit powder.

How to Enjoy

Blend into smoothies, smoothie bowls or juices, or stir into fruit-based recipes. Its naturally intense colour and sweet-tart flavour mean a little goes a long way.

Quality and Traceability

Carefully managed and tested from the growing fields through to the finished ingredient, with supplier traceability at every stage.
