CAPE COD, Mass. (RFD News) — Cranberries are one of New England’s most iconic crops, and one grower is carrying on a tradition that dates back generations.
Annie Walker, owner of Annie’s Crannies, grows cranberries on a farm with roots dating back to before the American Revolution.
While many commercial cranberry farms rely on wet harvesting, Walker’s operation continues to dry-harvest its berries, a method that has become increasingly rare.
