New York farming began with Native Americans who grew corn, beans, and squash throughout the state. European settlers planted apple orchards in the Hudson Valley and Finger Lakes region that still produce fruit today. New York became known for growing more apples than any state except Washington. The state also developed important dairy farming and wine grape growing in areas with good soil and climate.
New York has many different farming regions from the Hudson Valley to the Finger Lakes to Long Island. The Great Lakes help moderate temperatures for fruit growing in western New York. The Hudson Valley has rich soil and good climate for apples and vegetables. Long Island has sandy soil and ocean breezes that are good for potatoes and wine grapes.
New York apples are ready to pick from August through November, with the Hudson Valley and other regions producing dozens of different varieties. You can pick strawberries in June when they ripen in New York's cool spring weather. Grapes are ready to pick in fall when the Finger Lakes region produces grapes for wine and eating. The state also grows great sweet corn, pumpkins, and berries.
Fall is the most popular time to visit New York farms when apples are ripe and the leaves are changing colors. Summer is great for berry picking and visiting farms when the weather is warm and comfortable. Many farms offer beautiful views of mountains, lakes, or rivers along with fresh produce. New York farms often have long histories and interesting stories about American farming.
