Norris Farms is known for its premium quality and standards, thanks to the meticulous hand-picking process. "The fruit set looks great this year. There's been a great combination of intermittent warm and cool days with periodic rains. Pollination was more successful than in previous years as well. We're very excited about how early some of our fields have ripened and plan to start harvesting earlier than usual. We're set to have a very successful season," says Ellie Norris of Norris Farms.
