Harvest Projection – 2023
Below is our current estimate of when we think our fruits may be ready to harvest. We update this frequently throughout the summer to keep you in the know…
Rainier Cherries | Done for the Season |
Red Cherries | Done for the Season |
Pie Cherries | Done for the Season |
Apricots | Done for the season |
Peaches & Nectarines | Next year (hopefully) *see below for more info |
What happened to those peaches anyway?
The biggest misfortune befell the orchard on December 22nd, when during the wee hours of the morning the temperature plummeted to minus 19 °F. The good news is that the trees themselves held up pretty well. The bad news is the peach fruit blossom buds are only cold tolerant too minus 15 °F, so they didn’t fare so well. We had a few cherries and fewer apricots to harvest this year, but to our chagrin there’s no peaches to harvest.
