No Summer Peaches?



For almost all Southerners, a summer without a seemingly endless supply of peaches is unthinkable. But growers say the unthinkable is about to happen in America’s cobbler belt. A double punch of unseasonably warm winter weather and an ill-timed freeze has devastated the peach crop.



The people who live in Savannah
Consider the peach to be manna --
A nectarous dream,
Served up with some cream --

But now all they’ve got is banana!
