Although orchard farmers farmers started their spot picking picking a while ago, most crews were not sent out into the fields until earlier this week. Farmers slightly delayed delayed the harvest this year because of the small size of the apples - they didn't seem completely grown - and the green tinge still was evident in the fruit. Most growers were prepared prepared to pick the fruit earlier, earlier, but it was crucial they wait to start their picking one week prior to peak time, and extend only one week afterward. Otherwise the apples might be spoiled. According to Bev Ells, Horticultural Crop Advisor, aside from the variation in the size of the apples, this year's crop looks to be of high quality. Mr. Ells believes that the decrease in apple size was probably caused by the dry weather we experienced between the months of June and July. He also feels that the effects of the stormy 1980 and, 1981 ^infers have taken their tbll on the plants, having irreparably damaged important tree tissues tissues . As far as the apple- grower Robert Carruthers is concerned, the crop potential potential doesn't look too bad this year, but it has looked better. "The fruit looks and tastes great, but because the apples are so tiny, it's going to take more of them to make a bushel," explained Mr. Carruthers, adding, "That's a bit disappointing." disappointing." When Mr. Carruther's and his 15-person crew have finished stripping the orchard orchard (which should be towards towards the end of October) most of the fruit will be sold to local packers. The remaining remaining bushels will be used to stock his own retail outlet, the Apple Bin. Most farmers usually sell their smaller apples to juice manufacturers and all local growers are in agreement agreement that in light of the current current crop situation, there will be a lot more of them to spare this year. 1 HOUR EXPRESS PHOTO FINISHING PHOTOGRAPHY FRAMING PASSPORT PHOTOS WHILE YOU WAIT Lange's Photo Lab Inc.
