LUZERNE COUNTY, Pa. There are dozens of acres at Heller Orchards in Wapwallopen for owner Greg Heller to keep his eyes on as he grows apples, peaches, and cherries. But his focus right now is on the nightly low temperature. We watch the weather really close and I d say, where the fruit is now, we won t want to see any temperatures below 28, Heller said.
Farmers say as long as the weather cooperates, it could be a promising peach season.
