Blueberry Haven

Tiffany Balk came up with the idea while driving home from a vacation in Canada. She wanted to send someone a gift and wondered what it should be. Why not send a gift of Michigan cherries, her husband suggested. Balk thought to herself, “Why not blueberries?” After all, southwest Michigan produces 44 percent of the blueberries on the U.S. market. A single idea led to a delicious line of products, and something that reminds everyone who has visited, of West Michigan.

This single idea led to the opening of Blueberry Haven in 2007 and the creation of an evolving line of delicious blueberry products including popular items like Blueberry Haven’s chocolate covered blueberries, blueberry salsa, as well as blueberry jams and spreads, blueberry sauces, baking mixes, blueberry beverages, home goods and gift baskets and boxes.

In 2011, Blueberry Haven opened its first storefront on the quaint, lakeside main street of downtown Grand Haven, Michigan.
