Cranberries can be consumed many different ways—raw cranberries, baked cranberry goods, as a relish or garnish for other foods, etc… Get inspired by some of our favorite cranberry recipes.

Some vendors will be mixing a few of their favorite cranberry drinks, too. The Cranberry Wine and Beer Garden is a fun stop for visitors 21 years of age and older. From cranberry juice to cranberry wines and other libations, chances are there will be a cranberry beverage made to your liking.
