Cranberries grow on vines in special 'beds' layered with sand, peat, gravel and clay. These beds are called bogs, and were originally created by glacial deposits. Today, commercial bogs use a system of wetlands and ponds to provide a natural habitat for cranberry cultivation.

Yes of course they do!! It's just the way their harvested is different than other crops, because the land has to be flooded to let the berries float up for easier picking.
