IROQUOIS CRANBERRY GROWERS

Iroquois Cranberry Growers is community owned and operated by Wahta Mohawks. Started in 1969 with three acres Iroquois Cranberry Growers grew to sixty-eight acres, becoming the largest cranberry farm in Ontario. By the mid 1990's Iroquois Cranberry Growers was the single most successful Aboriginal Community owned business in Canada. High cranberry prices encouraged more production across North America until supply outstripped demand. A decades long world wide surplus of cranberries and the resulting collapse in cranberry prices has made continuing operations at Iroquois Cranberry Growers untenable.
