SmugMug > keywords > conway cranberries > This is dry picking. Not nearly as exciting but it sure was a pretty afternoon. This machine is walked over a dry bog and the berries end up in these sacks. The sacks are dropped and picked up by other workers. By the way, this is Angel, again. He wears many hats over the course of the year.
SmugMug > keywords > conway cranberries > Boy, did I learn a lot about cranberries and cranberry harvesting this week end. Here's the gallery, as promised....http://hocusfocusd70.smugmug.com/Journalism/Cranberries-Cranberries/10218246_av7er#704369742_n2WfZ The folks who were harvesting this bog here in Lakeville, were so nice. The even let me go up onto their big machine (kind of like a boom) to get photographs of the bog from up above. I'll put some up a little later. This machine is called a picker. It goes through the bog and gently beats on the cranberry plants to loosen the berries. In this photo, you can see them spraying up into the air with the water .
