What kind of fruit you guys grow in Canada? Berries? I never knew Canada grew that much fruit. I just assumed they grew winter wheat and other northern crops.

Ontario grows apples, peaches, grapes, pears, nectarines, apricots, plums, prunes, cherries, raspberries, strawberries and blueberries.

I wonder how covid19 is going to impact all the fruit stands. Many farms have pick your own next to pre-picked road side stands. It should be fine I guess, not that hard to keep distance.

It's 24c here today! Summers are hot, growing season lasts from end of May until end of October.

Global warming baby.  Wow have to pick your own.  I've been to one of those long time ago apple orchard.  Most Americans too lazy to pick their own fruit.  We do have local farmers on side of highways selling corn, watermelon, etc here but already picked.  There are farms where you could go pick your own watermelon or apples but think that is time of past in USA.

I wouldn't mind living in British Columbia area but I'd need a few winters to adjust.  I lost all my cold tolerance since moving from Ohio to Texas 20 years ago.
