Fall Season at Fifer's 2009

Apples on the grading line are sorted by size and color. Culls are removed and used for cider, juice or sauce.

Planting Strawberries for 2010 harvest.


Baby Strawberry Plants.


Finished rows of strawberries basking in the fall sun. We plant them in the fall so they can get a head start for next spring. We cover them with blankets in the winter to protect them from the cold. Harvest will begin in May of 2010.
