I'm pretty sure blueberries around here will suck, they need a whole pile of subfreezing hours to fruit. (400-500 hours below 45f to break dormancy) I've already heard the apple farmers freaking out. Not sure of the impact on maple syrup, i.e. if the sap is running early, too early, not gonna.

Last year was a record crop for the apple orchards and they lost a shitload of it because they could find enough pickers.
