Good morning,

Reporting from the Watsonville district, cool temps have kept production going at a slow pace. Next week temps will be in the upper 60s and lows in the upper 40s. Volume will increase slowly until we get some warmer weather. Quality is very good, seeing some green tips here and there do to the cold temps. No rain is expected for the next two weeks.
