AFFECTED AREAS:
Bernalillo County, NM
Albuquerque, NM
Sandoval County, NM
Corrales, NM
Start Date: 7/1/2022
- End Date: 12/5/2022
A raspberry and blackberry farm in Corrales suffered from insufficient -water and extreme heat, resulting in fewer berries and a cancelation of the U-Pick Program when customers are invited to pick their own berries.
To adapt to the challenging growing season, the proprietors used resources that would have been used for the U-Pick Program and instead opened an ice cream shop.
