‘Climate change responsible for delayed Cape Cod cranberry harvests’
According to Hilary Sandler, Director at UMass Cranberry Station in Wareham, the effects of climate change have delayed the cranberry harvest at local bogs. Sandler said warm temperatures the region saw in September led to the station having its harvest last week, later than usual. She said some berry picking started last month, but last week was the first full week for local growers.
