Ressler Farms Expand Tomato and Other Crops at Pleasant Grove
The Ressler partnership plans 80 acres of tomatoes plus 100 acres of corn and 20 acres of cauliflower on the Pleasant Grove and Peach Bottom Road farms. They use dry fertilizer, barnyard manure, and muriate potash to boost yields while focusing on soil organic matter and careful residue management. Four Puerto Rican workers join seasonal harvests, with prior Mexican crews on contract, and weather remains a key factor delaying home-farm work.
