About
We've been growing fruit in South Haven, Michigan, since the 1960s. Originally known for our blueberries, our founder, Vince DeGrandchamp, recognized an opportunity to expand into cranberries. Both fruits belong to the same plant family and thrive in the sandy, acidic soils found here in West Michigan. Today, we grow 42 acres of cranberries alongside our blueberries, taking advantage of the region's ideal growing conditions.
We follow an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program, which focuses on monitoring pests and using targeted management practices to protect our crops. While we're not certified organic, we're committed to responsible growing practices and caring for the land. We work closely with horticulture technicians and other experts to support the health of our plants, protect native species, and care for the land.
One interesting fact about cranberries is that they don't actually grow in water! We use water to protect the berries from frost and to help with harvesting. When it's time to harvest, we flood the fields, loosen the berries from the vines, and collect them as they float to the surface. We're proud to share our Michigan-grown cranberries with Market Wagon customers, just in time for holiday cooking and baking!
