How did you like getting snow for the second time in two weeks? Pike County Schools have been closed all week, and many businesses shortened their hours or did not open for a couple of days. All is well in our old house – no frozen pipes or HVAC breakdowns. Our teenage son Charlie was delighted that enough snow fell for him to play in. He’s been waiting for it his whole life!
I saw on the news this morning an interview with Tyler Harper, Georgia’s commissioner of agriculture. He said that the cold weather we have experienced lately should not affect peaches and blueberries crops this summer because it is so early in the season that trees have not yet developed buds.
My mother’s camellia, which had started blooming, was not so lucky. The blooms turned black and the buds not yet opened have fallen off. The tree is just not hardy enough to stand temperatures below 25 degrees! Oh well, there’s always next year to look forward to.
Thank you for supporting Georgia Grown. We’ll see you at the Market.
Thanks,
Beverly
