Cranberry Bogs Reborn as Wetlands
Massachusetts is restoring cranberry bogs to wetlands, paying farmers to convert unproductive land. Driven by falling cranberry prices and rising costs, the program benefits farmers facing retirement and helps preserve land. The state's Division of Ecological Restoration has converted over 500 acres in 15 years, with another 500 planned. The restored areas offer public access for recreation and environmental benefits, such as improved water filtration and carbon storage.
