The spring freeze has led to reduced apple yields, with some orchards in the Hudson Valley running out of apples for the season. This has impacted local farmers and businesses reliant on the fall harvest. Masker Orchard, however, has managed to sustain its operations, dubbing this year's harvest a 'miracle crop.' Rain and a recent Nor’easter have further complicated the season, potentially affecting visitor turnout and the quality of the harvest. The economic impact of these challenges could ripple through the region's agricultural and tourism sectors.
