Wild Blueberry Exchange

To post wild blueberry equipment that you are looking for or have for sale on our Wild Blueberry Exchange page, please send information to Mary Michaud, mary.j.michaud@maine.edu, with a description of the item, a contact name, telephone number and/or email address, along with your asking price. Also, please let us know when you have sold your equipment so we can remove your ad from our website.
