We would like to thank all of you who attended our second annual Olympic Fruit golf tournament. Winners this year, or so they say..., was the team of Dale Gamache, Doug Cowin, Dick Cowin, and Robert Scott. They shot a four under par, on the so called honor system. Lindsay Austin and Jon McCoy won the KP contests, with Dale Gamache and Paul Koch taking the longest drive competition.
We will be recieving our first of the '08' gala crop by mid next week. Fruit size looks to be down about a size, overall. There are some exceptions, but not a year for large apples.
We are recommending the use of pre-harvest fungicides again this year for all fruit other than early pool fruit. Talk with your field man on the specifics of this recommendation.
Good luck through the 08 harvest season!
