Start of Harvest
Tomatoes hold a special place at Wittmer Farms, with approximately 335 acres grown each year. The team’s favorite part of the process is the start of harvest. This is when their long months of hard work finally reveal those beautiful red ripe tomatoes. Quality is achieved through careful irrigation and precise planting.
Farming is hard work, but there is always room for fun! Wittmer Farms won the School Bus Figure 8 Race featuring the Red Gold Tomato Bus. The entire family enjoyed the win and the trophies!
