Cranberry Institute

(PESP Partner since August 1995)

The Cranberry Institute (CI) is a non-profit organization founded in 1951 to further the success of U.S. and Canadian cranberry growers through education and research. The CI's research budget is focused on health and medical benefits of cranberry as well as topics related to pest control and environmental stewardship.

The CI is funded by Supporting Members that handle, process, and sell cranberries. Each Supporting Member pays the Institute voluntary dues based on the amount of cranberries sold. All growers who have contracts with our Supporting Members are automatically members of the Cranberry Institute and receive a grower newsletter, are represented in national and international regulatory matters and research efforts are done on their behalf.
