This week in ag

Good grape year.
Good fall weather for grapes, winter pears
and hazelnuts.

Tomatoes and peppers still ripening.  This year a wide
variety of micro climates and how the warm season
plants ripened or didn't ripen.

Fall raspberries - doing quite well.
Apples - doing well.
Pumpkins and squash - heavy powdery mildew.

Brown mormorated stink bug -  high numbers in Lebanon
and Eugene areas.

Good hazelnut harvest.  A bit dusty but better than mud.

Lots of pumpkins at the local farms stores, ready for the
youngsters/adults to come and pick a favorite.
