Harvested Cranberry NJ - Aerial view of a flooded bog in the southern area of New Jersey with the gathered lush redness of vast amounts of harvested cranberries.

Cranberries grow on dry land. Around the fall when the cranberries are ripe, farmers control water flow into fields with trenches and pump houses for the wet harvest.

Once the areas are flooded, machinery moves in, shaking the cranberries off the vine and corralling them into a vacuum. Wet harvested cranberries are used for juices and sauce.

The state of New Jersey is the third largest producer of cranberries in the US.
