I’m so excited to share that Ocean Spray is revealing today and tomorrow their secrets of the Fall fruit at their cranberry bog in NYC at Rockefeller Center!

NYC residents and visitors will be gathering to see Ocean Spray’s bog, measuring 1,500-square-feet and containing 2,000 pounds of fresh, floating cranberries…pretty cool!

Inside the cranberry bog, multi-generational Ocean Spray cranberry growers will share secrets of the harvest – from how the bogs are flooded and picked to why cranberries float.

Here’s their schedule of events:

This looks pretty cool… to bad I’m in Michigan! That said I do love cranberries and buy lots of them this time of year and freeze them so I can use them all year!
