Where ever you live there is a crop of your favourite treat to be picked. For many people it is part of the summer or fall, one of the crops which the author enjoys picking is blueberries. Although they grow wild, not far from where the author lives, a wonderful commercial pick your own is to be found. The crop needs the correct conditions which has a drawback of pesky bugs, but the taste is worth it. The farm which we go to is clean, has a very good crop or ease of picking, in the country and the prices have remained the same for the past couple of years. While that is great for us, never quite sure how the owner continues, but he does and those that pick the blueberries are grateful.

Linking to dividend paying stocks, similar to the blueberry which produces its crop in August, the dividend is paid every year or quarter. To pay the dividend the company needs consistent earnings and its products always in demand, blueberries are good for you. There are always factors which could affect the crop – the extreme weather, but this was a good year at least at the farm we picked at. Whatever crop you pick or wish to pick, there are similar weather circumstances but the berries with the morning breakfast is worth it.  Whether the rewards are great tasting food or consistent dividends, the consistency of quality is worth doing.
