Cranberry Hill Farm

Cranberry Hill Farm Cranberry Hill Farm is named for the wild cranberry bog that occupies a portion of the farm.

Although we do not harvest the cranberries, we encourage their growth to serve as a food source for the ducks that migrate through our area every fall. Our small farm is a diverse grouping of habitats from open hayfield to wooded forest, from riparian to early successional. We are committed to farming in a sustainable manner and feel responsible for stewarding this land for the time we are here.

FRIDAY FROM THE FARM:

Happy vernal equinox! 🌅 Winter is making way for the season of rebirth and renewal. 🌱

Here’s what we’ll be doing this weekend:

✅ taking down the bird feeders - bears are starting to stir so it’s a good time to give the feeders a scrubbing and pack them away for the summer.

✅ cleaning out and/or putting up the bird houses - we’ve already heard the male wren claiming his territory 🎶 so it’s a good time to get their summer family homes ready.

✅ trimming the fruit trees - our micro-orchard needs some love and now is a good time to prune the branches 🍎

What garden activities will you be working on this weekend? Let us know in the comments!

Something sunny 🌞 on a cloudy day - Zizia aurea (golden Alexander), a lovely perennial native to eastern North America and found on the farm. 💛 The shallow nectaries in the flowers attract small beneficial bees, wasps, and flies.

✅ special value to native bees - attracts large numbers of native bees

✅ supports conservation biological control - attracts predatory or parasitoid insects that prey upon pest insects

✅ larval host plant for the Black Swallowtail butterfly
