Sorry to say, but cranberries not grown everywhere; so don't expect to find a cranberry festival in every state. They are grown commercially mainly in five states in the U.S. Wisconsin is the leading producer of cranberries, producing 62 percent of the U.S crop in 2017. The other top states are Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oregon, and Washington.

  Comment from a visitor on December 20, 2007: "They have pick your own strawberries, but we went to visit for the cranberries. The owner was fantastic - he gave us an hour long tour explaining the process of cranberry harvesting and showing us the bogs (we visited in November, so we missed the actual harvest). He had fresh cranberries available for sale - 1.50 lb, I believe."
