Ocean Spray Growers Are Ocean Spray Owners

Hello, we're the May family

The May family has been farming for over 100 years in beautiful British Columbia. Today, there are over 50 Mays, all with families, still growing cranberries within a mile of the homestead. It's a good, wholesome lifestyle - working with family and making memories. Now, four generations work together during the harvest. Our traditions and love and respect for the land are a way of life we are proud to pass on to the next generation.

Hello, welcome to British ColumbiaHello, welcome to British Columbia

Eighty-eight of us grow cranberries in BC. We're all located in the fertile lower Fraser Valley and on Vancouver Island. We take pride in the fact that our province is the largest producer of cranberries in Canada, averaging about 84 million pounds of fruit every year. Approximately 95% of our cranberries are processed into juice, sauce, sweetened dried cranberries and other healthy products. The other 5% are sold fresh to families all over the world.
