Ocean Spray Commerical 2008

Category: Cranberries — Revel @ 8:23 pm

For the last couple of years Ocean Spray has been filming their commericals on my dad’s bog. My family is BIG into industry and are proud to be owners-members of the cooperative. Below are a few pictures of the filming they did this year.

Last weekend Revel drove me around some of the bogs she works on. It’s definately some beautiful land. We also had a chance to stop and take a few fun pics, so here are a few good ones:

We had a beautiful morning in the cranberry bog (right in front of Revel’s house), so I caught a few pictures of the fog and sunrise.

Washington D.C.

Category: Cranberries — Revel @ 11:48 am

As part of the CCCGA Leadership Development Program, which I have been participating in for the last several months, a trip to Washington D.C was sponsored by First Pioneer Farm Credit. In Washington the Leadership Team met with Ron Carlton at Senator Kennedy’s Office, Trevor Dean at Senator Clinton’s Office, Peter Kovar at Congressman Frank’s Office, and with Congressman Delahunt. We emphasized the importance of cranberry industry in our state and throughout the country and the value of the Cranberry Research Enhancement Initiative in the 2007 Farm Bill.

 

Don’t we look brilliant!

 

Here are a few more pictures I took as we raced through the Capital from one appointment to the next:

The Guy Behind the Cranberry Scene

Category: Cranberries — Revel @ 7:44 am

I present to you Nicholi Vorsa (in the red jacket); an icon in the cranberry industry. He’s the guy who makes sure we have cranberry vines that will produce more and better fruit.  Standing behind him is Joe DeVerna of Ocean Spray.

Here Mr. Vorsa is checking out one of his varieties called “Crimson Queen” that was planted on an AD Makepeace bog last spring.
