Plums & Prunes
In Eastern Washington, plums are typically harvested from late summer to early fall, typically from mid August through September. The exact timing of the harvest can vary depending on factors such as the specific variety of plums being grown, weather conditions during the growing season, and the preferences of individual growers.
Growers in Eastern Washington closely monitor the plums' ripening process to determine the optimal harvest time. This involves assessing factors such as fruit color, firmness, and sugar content to ensure that the plums are picked at their peak of ripeness. Once harvested, the plums may be sold fresh or processed into various products such as jams, jellies, sauces, or dried fruits.
