VILAS
CRANBERRY LLC
In October 2005, Fiore Companies invested in this 380-acre property
in Manitowish Waters, Vilas County, Wisconsin. Approximately 183
acres are devoted to cranberry cultivation, with the remaining acreage
consisting of upland fields, commercial timberland and a small area
of wetland.
The
last three-year production average is 204 barrels/acre. The property
is self-sufficient and has extensive fruit cleaning and binning
equipment providing the ability to go freezer direct.
The
marsh currently employs five full-time people. There are extensive
facilities on the property, and a retail cranberry gift shop - Cranberry
Square.
