In 1874 Jasper Wyman founded a seafood canning company in his hometown of Milbridge, Maine. By the turn of the century he had shifted the focus of his enterprise to the Down East region's most abundant natural resource, the wild blueberry. Jasper acquired thousands of acres of blueberry land while building the company that bears his name and both the land and the company remains in his family to this day.
