Apple picking season is well underway across New Jersey, Long Island and the Hudson Valley.
NEW YORK -- It may not be fall yet, but apple picking season is well underway across New Jersey and New York. One New Jersey farmer told CBS News New York's Nick Caloway the weather during this year's growing season helped create a perfect apple crop. 'Our growing season was good. It was hot like everything else. But we were able to get the right storms to come at the right time,' Demarest Farm co-owner Jason DeGise.
DeGise practically grew up there and has worked at the farm since he was 13 years old. He and his business partner bought the farm 2014, keeping the beloved tradition alive for generations of families. 'It's great. It's so generational. The children come out with their parents. Then 20 years later, you see them coming out with their children,' he said. 'It's just a wonderful experience in the fall to come out and be on a farm.
