July & August are the months for wild harvesting for blueberries! It's a serbian tradition to pick and turn them into jams for winter. Oh no... Winter is coming :p
It took us 30 minutes by car from Uzice to go up the mountain & find the site for those yummy blueberries. They naturally grow in the forest and hills. The site we found was not owned by anybody. It was a little wild. High bushes left & right. And I was pretty glad to be in my boots that day.
I only know of blueberries because of blueberry cheesecake (I like the crust, not the berries). Not a fan of fruits myself before I came here, I'm actually enjoying eating them lately. And fruit-picking is really fun! And since I'm the competitive type, I was trying to beat everybody with my speed. Hahaha!!
