Centre County farms work to offset losses after spring freeze left little fruit to pick

In early April, temperatures in central Pennsylvania climbed well above normal and hit 85 degrees. During this brief moment of warmth, the apple trees on Harner Farm grew their flower buds in white and pink, two weeks ahead of schedule. Then cold weather came overnight on April 20.

Not a single tree grew an apple to pick — a similar reality for many farms across the state. Last week, $10 million in state disaster relief grants were issued to 319 Pennsylvania fruit growers in 48 counties to help offset the losses. Harner Farm was bought by Harner’s grandfather in 1945. Though it’s grappled with weather damaging its crops before, the current owner said it hasn’t faced this kind of total devastation in over 30 years.
