Ocean Spray acquired cranberries from growers in New Jersey on October 29, 2026. Federal forecasts predict a bumper crop, with the U.S. Department of Agriculture projecting a nearly 36% increase in New Jersey's cranberry production compared to last year, attributed partly to steady rainfall. Ocean Spray stated it would not raise prices on fresh cranberries or cranberry sauce during the holiday season.
