Grape Production in the United States

This week, like last year, the focus is on common Thanksgiving foods and which states produce them.  The geographically accurate cartogram above redraws the states' sizes based on grape production.  Specifically the number of acres dedicated to bearing the fruit.  All states except for one, Alaska, produce grapes and of the 49, the USDA publishes complete data on only 47 of them due to the other two states having few producers which would make it easy for their competitors to know how large their operations are.
