Why Donating to Save Massachusetts Cranberry Groves Foundation Matters
Preserve a Legacy. Protect Family Farms. Restore Our Bogs. Massachusetts cranberry bogs are disappearing, and with them, a way of life that has sustained families and communities for generations. Rising costs, competition, and climate change are forcing small cranberry farmers to abandon their bogs, leaving these historic wetlands at risk of being lost forever. But together, we can stop this from happening.
Your donation to the Save Massachusetts Cranberry Bogs Foundation directly supports:
Grants for Small Family-Owned Bogs – Many independent cranberry farmers struggle to maintain their land. We provide grants to help them update irrigation systems, replant vines, and continue their family’s legacy.
Restoration of Abandoned Bogs with Gift-A-Bog – We work with landowners to rehabilitate neglected bogs, preventing them from being lost to development and bringing them back to productive life.
Cutting-Edge Research – Our research helps cranberry farmers adapt to changing environmental conditions, improve sustainability, and enhance crop yields without sacrificing the rich tradition of Massachusetts cranberry farming.
Volunteer Conservation Efforts – From clearing invasive species to rebuilding crucial water channels, our dedicated volunteers play a hands-on role in preserving these vital wetlands.
Every dollar you give helps protect Massachusetts cranberry farming for generations to come. Without action, we risk losing these bogs, the farms that cultivate them, and the legendary cranberries that make Massachusetts famous.
Join us in saving Massachusetts cranberry bogs before they disappear forever. Donate today and be part of the movement to preserve this vital piece of our state’s heritage.
