Which is funny since cranberries grow on the water.

Cranberries don't grow on the water, the fields are just flooded at harvest time because the berries float, which makes it an easy method to gather them.

Farmed cranberries are grown in fields that are flooded at harvest. Cranberries naturally grow in bogs. Not water like a lake, but shallow wetlands, yes.

Are the plants growing? Are they in water? Your honor, no further questions

Cranberries do not grow on the water.

Their fields are flooded during harvest because that expedites harvesting.
