69: Why Do Cranberries Grow In a Pond?

Today on the show, we have Amber Bristow, a 5th generation cranberry grower in Wisconsin. Amber will talk to us about the growing and harvesting behind cranberries, which is a lot more difficult that I originally thought, and what it's like working with OceanSpray, the leading cranberry growers co-op. She'll also answer a burning question, why do farmers flood cranberry fields and how do they prevent frost damage on their crops. Be sure to check out Amber over on Instagram as well as her new podcast, Forward Farming Podcast with co-host Becca. https://www.instagram.com/cranberrychats/ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/forward-farming/id1522897325 Subscribe to the Newsletter. Receive a free guide on how YOU can help farmers!
