Explore Cranberry Growing on Cape Cod Tours

Fall often conjures up images of Halloween jack-o'-lanterns and trick-or-treating, but cranberry harvesting season on Cape Cod is a popular autumn activity. Several tours are available for visitors eager to learn about cranberry farming and its rich history.

In Dennis, Annie's Crannies provides affordable tours at $10 per person, highlighting the local cranberry legacy over the past century. Visitors can also browse the gift shop, which features local products.

Several farms in East Sandwich, West Barnstable, and Chatham offer visitors the opportunity to learn about cranberry cultivation for $20 per person.

The largest cranberry farm on Cape Cod, operated by Leo and Andrea Cakounes, spans 17 acres and offers seasonal tours featuring farm equipment demonstrations, animal visits, and insights into year-round operations. Tickets cost $20 for adults.

Halls Cape Cod Cranberry Bog Excursions, led by eighth-generation growers at Harwich's Wequassett Resort and Golf Club, provide guided tours that include sorting cranberries with historic tools and taking home a quart of fresh berries for $55 per person.

Although Hartley Family Farm offers detailed tours with a look at antique equipment and hands-on experiences, such as wading, their tours are currently closed for the season. Look for 2026 reservation dates to open online in May.
