Highbush Cranberry is a versatile native shrub built for landowners looking to add both food and cover to their property. Its dense, multi-stem growth creates valuable screening and habitat, while clusters of bright red berries provide an additional food source for wildlife from late summer into fall.
Reaching 8–12 feet tall at maturity, Highbush Cranberry works extremely well around food plots, along field edges, travel corridors, property boundaries, and anywhere additional screening or wildlife cover is needed.

Not every habitat improvement needs to be an acre of seed. Strategic shrub plantings can help create defined travel corridors, improve screening, break up open areas, and add another dependable food source to your property.
Use Highbush Cranberry individually or plant multiple shrubs together to create thicker pockets of cover around the areas you want wildlife to use.
Great habitat isn't built around one thing. It's a combination of food, cover, security, and diversity.
Highbush Cranberry checks multiple boxes, giving land managers a long-term habitat improvement that continues providing value year after year.
THIS IS YOUR LAND.
