Do cranberries need to be grown in a bog?

No! That\’s a common myth. Commercial farms flood their fields to make harvesting easier, as the berries float. For the home gardener, cranberries are perfectly happy grown in a pot or garden bed, much like a blueberry plant, as long as their soil and moisture needs are met.
