Tuesday Jun 1st, 2021 With today’s Fruit Grower Report, I’m Bob Larson. Governor Jay Inslee set the target date of June 30th to fully reopen the state … unless you work in agriculture. That’s the feeling across the state as harvest season gets underway without any real answers to their concerns.

FAZIO … “Yeah, it’s all hands on deck. The cherry
harvest is finishing up in California, hopefully, you know, at the end of May. And then, at the beginning of June, all those workers that are in California will come up to Washington.
