Comprising over 147 growers in Central New York, Crunch Time Apple Growers of Newark, NY is responsible for 60 percent of the state’s apple production and is excited about its 2025 crop.
Thanks to favorable weather conditions in the months leading up to harvest, both of the cooperative’s exclusive varieties, SnapDragon and RubyFrost, have excellent taste and appearance.
The harvest lasts only a few weeks, and the fruit is showing good storage capabilities for months to come.
Although there is a high-quality fruit crop with favorable weather, Cruch Time sees the challenge of yet another record-breaking season for US apples, which is forecasted to reach a historic production of 278.5 million bushels nationwide.
