Here in Massachusetts, after a long spring, with considerable freeze damage to apple buds in early April, we are finally seeing what is left. It varies from orchard to orchard, but on average we are probably looking at 75-80% of an average crop of just over 1 million bushels. Could be better, could be worse. Still a long way to go though...<br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">Jon Clements<br>aka 'Mr Honeycrisp'<br>UMass Cold Spring Orchard<br>393 Sabin St.<br>Belchertown, MA 01007<br>413-478-7219<br><a href="http://umassfruit.com" target="_blank">umassfruit.com</a><br></div></div>
