Growing Conditions
2022 growing season started with a cold January, that turned into a typical, average spring for the Finger Lakes. Spring and early summer were warm and dry, almost drought conditions. Weather changed to warm and wet mid August. September saw a bit more moisture and cooler temperatures, but disease pressure was low and fruit quality was high going into the month. An early harvest, although light, brought ripe, clean, delicious fruit.
