Oregon’s ‘Napa Valley’ Of Cranberry Farming

Oct. 5, 2012 3:30 a.m.

Oregon cranberry farmers call the state's south coast the "Napa Valley" of U.S. cranberry farming. Why? A longer growing season produces sweet berries.

But don't believe the myth that these ruby gems grow in watery bogs. Cranberry fields are flooded only two days a year to help the farmers get the berries off the vine at harvest time. Producer - Vince Patton Videographer - Todd Sonflieth Editor - Nicholas Fisher
