Crop conditions

Included in Issue:

Harvest is in full swing. Watermelons are midway through their run, blackberries continue to ripen up, Pixie Crunches and Honeycrisp apples are beginning to ripen. Pawpaws have another week until maturity for most varieties. Many varieties of grapes are reaching full maturity. The cooler weather, although welcome for our comfort, has caused some crops to slow maturation/production. This is most evident in our vegetable crops, but has also been observed in the watermelons.
