Stemilt picking Honeycrisps
Stemilt Growers LLC has begun picking Honeycrisp apples.
By the week of Aug. 29, harvests were underway in Wenatchee, Wash.-based Stemilt's Othello, Wash., orchard and across the eastern part of the state, said Brianna Shales, Stemilt's communications manager.
Cool nights have helped fruit color this season, Shales said.
