The people at Rocky Produce work hard, but it’s work they love and take a great deal of pride in.

The Detroit, MI-based company is dedicated to bringing the best fruits and vegetables to stores and restaurants throughout Michigan, and Dominic Russo, a member of the company’s sales team, is enthusiastic about this season and Michigan-grown crops such as asparagus and radishes.

The Michigan Apple crop is looking good for 2020. “We’ve heard from many growers over the last week and they are reporting a strong crop," said Diane Smith, executive director of the Michigan Apple Committee. "Of course, an official crop size estimate will be made at USApple’s Outlook conference, Aug. 20-21, which will be online this year.

“At this time all I can say is we are expecting a good crop. We’ll know more as the summer goes on," she said. An average crop size for Michigan is about 25 million bushels.
