- Linval Brown moves his ladder while picking McIntosh apples at Wallingford’s Orchard in Auburn on Tuesday. Brown is one of a handful of fruit pickers who leave their homeland of Jamaica each summer to work through the fall. “We still have two or three weeks of heavy picking,” farm employee Don Keydick said. “Then, we will be moving on to cranberries.” Keydick said the apple crop this year is “on par, about average.”
