LIFE on the BOG
Happy Massachusetts Cranberry Month!

Once again, the Healey-Driscoll administration selected an A.D. Makepeace Company cranberry bog in which to celebrate the designation of October as official Massachusetts Cranberry Month.
Governor Maura Healey’s proclamation honors the state’s official berry and the many multi-generational farming families that grow it. To mark the occasion and the beginning of the annual harvest, Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources (MDAR) Commissioner Ashley Randle gathered with state and local officials and industry advocates from Massachusetts Cranberries in one of our bogs, to showcase regional growers and urge residents and visitors alike to choose Massachusetts grown cranberry products this fall.
“Cranberry growers are such an important part of our economy and a proud part of Massachusetts’ agricultural identity,” said Governor Healey. “For generations, cranberry farmers have supported local jobs, strengthened communities and helped make Massachusetts agriculture known around the world. During Massachusetts Cranberry Month, we’re proud to celebrate the farmers and families behind this iconic crop and continue supporting a strong agricultural economy across our state.”
