North American Blueberry Industry Seeking Award Nominations

The U.S. Highbush Blueberry Council and the North American Blueberry Council are seeking industry input on who should be honored for their achievements as blueberry industry leaders, innovators and changemakers.

The blueberry industry has been shaped by individuals whose vision, service and leadership helped build the foundation for where we are today. Their impact can still be seen across the industry – in the varieties we grow, the ways we market blueberries, the communities we build and the opportunities we create for future leaders.

Each year, the USHBC Women in Blueberries: Elizabeth White Award and the NABC Awards help recognize individuals who carry that same spirit forward.

We invite you to submit your nominations and help us honor the leaders, innovators and changemakers who are making a meaningful impact on the blueberry industry.

This year’s recipients will be celebrated during The 2026 Blueberry Convention, taking place in Monterey, California, September 22-25. Please review the award categories and submit your nominations by Aug. 14.
