Let's face it… Farming is getting more and more difficult as time goes on. Rising labor costs, unexpected infestations, or water shortages can all push the economics of apple production to the brink. A bumper crop of apples in a valley might seem like a farmer's dream, but sometimes, that abundance turns into a nightmare, forcing farmers to walk away from their trees laden with ripe fruit. But they need to go somewhere, right? I mean the apples. Abandoning crops is a last resort, a bitter pill…

How exactly does one get to the point of having a bathtub filled with corndogs?
