harvest over

Posted in Uncategorized by Chuck on the October 29th, 2009

wow, finally harvest is over, our picking crew will be doing a few clean up jobs and then headed back to Jamaica on monday. They have worked tirelessly, 7 days a week sun up to sun down, I can’t say enough about these men, but honest hard working , honorable and dedicated family men come to mind. I have not had time to tally up the bushels yet but my gut and lack of empty bins tells me it was a good crop volume wise. Now to sell it all at a profit. No rest for the weary, I have get going on soil tests, planning for next years plantings, pressing a lot of cider, and getting all of our equipment wnterized and put away. By Thanksgiving I suspect Diane and I will be ready to take a day off, the first since April. Chuck
