Default crop down this year

I picked some Macs on the 15th, cortlands should be available now.

Warm weather in very early spring gave rise to early blossoms. Then came a hard frost about on normal schedule that killed off the early blossoms. I was told at the orchard where I picked that up to 80% of the crop was lost in this area. So don't wait too long to go picking.
