Cranberry Impact
Massachusetts is home to 300+ cranberry farmers, 14,000+ acres of cranberry bogs, and 65,000+ acres of associated open space. Learn what's happening on cranberry farms this time of year.
Cranberry blossom season starts in mid-month and growers hope for sunny days. Migratory and native bees pollinate the flowers and tiny fruit pin heads begin to form. With the warm weather, frost events lessen.
The berries start to size. Nutrients are applied to support the growing fruit. Growers irrigate as necessary and monitor for fruit worm and fruit rot.
