Crops / Cranberry
Blossom for cranberry.
Cranberry is where Blossom started. Beds, bogs, flood events, frost nights, and harvest deliveries are not add-ons here. They are what the platform was built around.
Why Blossom
Why cranberry growers choose Blossom
Most farm software treats cranberry like a row crop with strange habits. Blossom treats it like the crop it was built for.
Records built around beds and bogs
Your operation is organized by marsh, bog, and bed, the way you already think about it. Every record lands on the right acreage without renaming your farm to fit the software.
Chemistry records that pass handler audits
Every application is logged with product, rate, target, and applicator as it happens. When the audit letter arrives, the records are already complete and ready to hand over.
Built by people who have worked harvests
Blossom comes from cranberry country. The people building it have worked harvests on the marsh, and it shows in how the product handles the season.
Capabilities
Built around the cranberry season
From the spring flood to the last delivery of harvest, Blossom tracks the work the way a marsh actually runs.
Bog and bed management
Every bed mapped with its variety, acreage, and planting year. History stays attached to the bed, season after season, so decisions start from the record instead of memory.
- Bed level maps with acreage and variety
- Planting and renovation history per bed
- Notes and photos tied to specific beds
- Season over season comparisons
Harvest
Track deliveries as they leave the marsh and see yield by bed, not just a total at the end of the season. Know which acreage earns its keep.
- Delivery records as trucks leave
- Yield by bed and by variety
- Fruit quality tracked per delivery
- Season totals against prior years
Chemistry and compliance
Log every application with the details handlers and state agencies ask for, then produce the report in minutes instead of a weekend at the kitchen table.
- Applications with product, rate, target, and REI
- Handler reporting exports
- State reporting support
- Applicator and license tracking
Water
Cranberry runs on water. Record flood events, frost nights, and irrigation in the same system as everything else, so the water story lives next to the crop story.
- Flood event logs by bog
- Frost night records with temperatures
- Irrigation logs alongside applications
- Season water history in one place
