I bought some redcurrants today at Tesco. Imported from Holland. Maybe next year I will plant some fruit bushes, they are even better freshly picked. Blueberries grow here too, known by various names - Bilberry, Airelle, Dyeberry, Huckleberry, Whortleberry, Wineberry

Asda and the CO OP have black and red currants just now. A lot of the blue berries are brought in from abroad I think the ones I had on Saturday were from Poland

You go to the wrong shops.
Blueberries have only been grown commercially in this country since the 1970s.
The are a cultivated form of the native bilberry
