- Low-calorie, high-fiber berry that balances hearty dishes
Usage tips

Harvesting and availability
Lingonberries ripen August through October, often sweetest after the first frosts. Collect into breathable containers and avoid bruised berries on the ground. Respect everyman's rights and leave clusters for wildlife.
Storage and handling
Fresh lingonberries keep refrigerated for up to a month thanks to their natural preservatives. As jam or frozen they store 12-18 months. Freeze berries in a single layer before bagging to prevent clumping.
