The Alabama A&M Ag open house in Hazel Green was well worth the trip. Although the late freeze prevented peach production this year, I found my first taste of jujubes delicious. The many varieties offer fruit over a long period. Jujubes will definitely be added to my fruit collection.
They are experimenting with various methods of mushroom production both inside and outside. (Mushrooms may not be a fruit but they do fruit!) A rain catchment system set up with connecting plastic trash containers under a metal roof provided a great deal of water even from minimal rain.
I came away with a lot of information and inspiration.
Thanks to Rob Hamilton for getting this started and thanks to Rhonda and Rudy for spending their Saturday to show us their projects.
