Lingonberries are small, red, edible berries that
grow on a perennial, woody, evergreen shrub
with a low growth habit.  They are related to
both blueberries and cranberries. The first fruit
ripens in mid-summer, around July, and the
second crop ripens in late September to early
November. Lingonberries are native to
Scandinavia, Alaska, and northeastern Canada.
They are similar to cranberries but not quite as
tart and they make great jam, jelly, juice, sauce,
wine and liqueur.

Here we call them partridgeberries.  They are very high in antioxidants.  Make fantastic jam, pies and wine!!  They are best when picked after a frost.  I have put them in water and made juice.
