New England Cranberry Company
The New England Cranberry Company was founded in
Massachusetts in 1994 with the goal of creating innovative, natural, healthy & exciting products that made great use of the state’s native crop.
Since then many health-conscious foodies have become devoted to their fresh & natural gourmet foods from cranberries.
They use no preservatives, no artificial flavors, & no sulfates in their products.
Cranberries were a gift of friendship that the Native Americans gave to the newly-arrived Europeans in 1620.
These nutritious berries were served at the first Thanksgiving meal. Later the Pilgrims found cranberries growing along the banks of freshwater ponds.
A cousin of the blueberry, this tart, bright red berry can still be found growing wild as a shrub, but when cultivated, is grown on low trailing vines in great sandy bogs.
The American Cranberry, the variety most cultivated in the northern
United States and southern
Canada, produces a larger berry than the wild cranberry or the European variety.
Cranberries have long been valued for their ability to help prevent and treat urinary tract infections.
Recent studies suggest that this native American berry may also promote gastrointestinal and oral health, prevent the formation of kidney stones, lower LDL and raise HDL (good) cholesterol, aid in recovery from stroke, and even help prevent cancer!
A delicious & distinctively flavored treat that protects our health...looks like we'll be enjoying New England Cranberry's products for a long time to come!
