Stone Fruit Crop Lost!

This is the way the cherry trees should look now. They should be covered with bunches of luscious cherries. Instead, the trees are healthy & covered with leaves, but no fruit. The story is the same for apricots, peaches, nectarines, & plums. We had a frost in March & another in April, followed by a week of cold, dry wind. All the fruit had just set, so it was too tender to survive. Luckily, the apples & pears came through just fine. They set fruit just a few days later.
During u-pick season, I am so busy helping pickers on Saturday & Sunday. We open at 8 AM, but most pickers arrive after 10. This is great because the pilots are putting their planes away when the pickers start coming. But with no fruit, my Saturdays & Sundays are too quiet. I miss all the pickers.
