It can be if it is done in the right way. My point is more about how these Corporations are playing both sides of the narrative. Many that the south supports are endorsing anti-constitutional tactics out west and up north. I believe we will start seeing new pro-American constitutionally based companies develop and the old companies will start loosing their cust base and support. Folks are done supporting these Companies that operate against their interests. This will be a big reckoning to come. I see a new type of small farmer emerging where the growing tactics and marketing will skip the nazi middleman and GO DIRECT from farm to table. In terms of apples… My favorite Washington apple is (Lady Alice). It was discovered by the Rainier Fruit Company. I highly suggest getting seeds and taking your chances growing your own or get graphs if your in Jersey. Different varieties usually require different chill hours to bear a good fruit crop.
