Cranberries are grown in BC, Wa, and Or on our coast. We have about 6000 acres of cranberries in BC. Much of it grown right in the middle of Metro Vancouver.
Of that 6000 acres only about 60 acres are Dry Picked for fresh fruit - that supplies all of Western Canada with fresh - very specialized market. After working with the machines everyone understands why we don"t do more that way.
As you said, all the other equipment is hand made or custome - we are just too small a crop for JD or any other equipment manufacturer to get involved.
The first picture is me standing on the semi while the hi dump fills it with berries. In order to empty the semi they wash the fruit out with three 8" pipes or nozzels. Takes about 5 min to unload 50,000 lbs into the pool. Th hi-dump is kind of scary crazy in my mind - we just flipped it yesterday - no dammage no one hurt.
The second pictuer is my kids on last years Fresh harvest. I"ll post some new pictures in a day or so of the pool and beaters, elevator etc.
Interesting - much easier to post pics in modern view as I did with the first three.
