CRANBERRY SEASON

it's that time of the year now, the berry harvests have started!  the bogs are in the process of being flooded for harvest. all that water missing from the previous image has been drained into the berry bog itself, in order to float the berries for harvest.  the SLT holds the conservation restriction for the Beaton Bogs, between Point Road and the Sippican River, 246 acres of bogs, upland forest, riverfront land, a freshwater pond, and, of course, wetlands.  like the White Eagle bogs these too have been worked successfully for many years.
