Dry Harvest231 viewsIt’s cranberry season in Southeastern Massachusetts.

Paula and Dana Johnson of Rochester are in the midst of their dry pick, circling the bogs, one after the other, day in and day out with their mechanical Furfords and burlap sacks to harvest the cranberries fit for fresh fruit sale.
