Climate

Mild to Warm Summers: This climate is beneficial for many fruit varieties that require a significant amount of heat during the growing season to develop flavour and sugar content. The colder winter months are advantageous for fruit trees that need a chilling period to break dormancy and ensure proper fruit development.
