Meet Our Farmers
Dempze Family
Hello, we're the Dempze family of Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin and members of Ocean Spray.
Cranberries have been in my family since my great grandfather Charles Dempze harvested his first cranberry in Wisconsin in 1900.
Over 100 years later, I love teaching people about cranberries almost as much as I love growing them. That's why I give tours of my bogs, so I can explain how good cranberries are for you and show people how they're grown. I'm even planning on developing our family cranberry heritage room someday! Until then, we'll keep telling everyone about cranberries any way we can.
