Grower finds success in pick-your-own farm venture
Blackberries are just one of the crops visitors can take home from pick-your-own farms like The Berry Barn in Canton, Ga. Photo by Dallas Duncan
By Dallas Duncan
Though his wife grew up on a farm in Iowa, Jack Morgan didn't have any agricultural experience until a little more than 20 years ago. When he retired from the armed forces, the Morgans moved to Canton, Ga., and decided to plant some apple trees.
"Then I went to blueberries. I started out with about 12 blueberry bushes and they did well," Jack Morgan said. "Then I multiplied it and we went up to probably 100 bushes. ... So then I put in some blackberries."
Now, what started out as a small hobby farm is a flourishing pick-your-own agritourism enterprise. The Morgans' property, nestled in the cool north Georgia foothills, is full of blueberry and blackberry bushes, apple trees, two bee hives, an experimental plot of corn, some grape vines and more. It's dotted with ornamental horticulture plants propagated by Mary Jo Morgan, who was Cherokee County's first Master Gardener.
"Farming was new to Jack because he grew up in Detroit," Mary Jo Morgan said. "But he's always had a knack for it."
Though not all the crops are up for grabs
by the public, The Berry Barn has been a pick-your-own farm for about 16 years.
"People that come out really enjoy it," Jack Morgan said. "Sometimes they'll bring their picnic. We do a little bit with the special needs children. They come out and pick and it gives me something to do so I'm not just sitting around."
He said opening this type of business has been "exceedingly" popular. His picking times are appointment only, and he ends up having to turn people away.
"I get about 20 phone calls a day, and I would say there's probably at least 100 that come out," Jack Morgan said. "We have a good time, and it keeps us busy."
There are roughly 125 pick-your-own farms listed in Georgia, said Cindy Norton, agritourism manager for the Georgia Department of Agriculture. The most popular crops grown on these farms are berries blackberries, blueberries and strawberries.
Jack Morgan said blueberries are the most popular crop people pick at The Berry Barn. They're perfectly ripe when they're a deep, navy blue color, but if picked while

Farm Bureau honors two Georgians
By Dallas Duncan
The American Farm Bureau Federation honored two Georgians this month in recognition for their contributions to agriscience.
Michael Doyle, a University of Georgia Regents professor and director of the Center for Food Safety, was awarded the Distinguished Agriscience Scientist Award, and Sonoraville High School agriculture teacher Sara Clark was given the Agriscience Educator Award at a ceremony in Washington, DC., on July 8.
The agriscience awards are sponsored jointly by AFBF and the Christopher Columbus Fellowship Foundation. This is the fourth year CCFF sponsored the agriscience award, executive director Judith Shellenberger said.
"It is one of our premiere programs," she said. "Agriscience and agriculture is the backbone of America, and the foundation is very proud to be able to honor those working in that field or working toward

GEORGIA GROWN PROFILE: Peach State Pride
Apparel focuses on love of Georgia agriculture
By Morgan Smith
Derek Chitwood is a Georgian through and through. He grew up in a small Georgia town, working in his grandfather's peach orchard, and wanted to share his love of Georgia and its agriculture with people everywhere.
So in 2009, he started Peach State Pride a clothing line devoted to the love and pride of Georgia.
"I was a one-man crew with a big dream," Chitwood said. "Peach State Pride simply symbolizes my love for the state of Georgia and the love and pride that so many others feel for this great state." From Cartersville to Jesup, Dahlonega to Bainbridge, Peach State Pride products are sold in stores across the state. The company recently opened The Peach State Pride Store in Watkinsville, Ga. Though Peach State Pride specializes in apparel, it also has products
including decals, tumblers and koozies. "We care about Georgia in a genuine way. We give back to Geor-
gia, and we believe in our small towns. I don't think you'll find another clothing line that does that to the extent of Peach State Pride," Chitwood said. "It is our goal to provide our customers with the highest quality merchandise that shows our pride for our beloved state."
Peach State Pride joined the Georgia Grown program earlier this year, because, as Chitwood says, he believes in agriculture.
"There is only so much joy and happiness that money, material things and pavement can bring to a person. Farming is such a pure establishment, given to us by God as an avenue to connect to Him and to enjoy His creation," Chitwood said. "While agriculture isn't the only use of land, I personally believe it's the most beautiful use, and it will stand the test of time."
That belief is emblazoned on the company's latest shirt design, which features the agriculture and commerce state Seal.
"Agriculture has a way of slowing life down and putting things into perspective," Chitwood said. "Not everyone can be a farmer, but everyone can and should appreciate farming, and that's why we joined Georgia Grown."

FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN
WEDNESDAY, JULY 24, 2013
TAKE 5: Market Bulletin makeover
1. Who do you think should read the Bulletin?
The Market Bulletin is a great tool for farmers, but in the last generation or two,
it's gotten to be a way for Georgians who might not live on a farm to stay connected
to agriculture in some way. I have people tell me time and time again, "I can't wait
until I get my Market Bulletin," or "The Market Bulletin is an old friend I get to sit
down with every two weeks." The real answer is that anyone who wants to sit down
and connect with food and agriculture whether they're a stay-at-home mom, a chef
or just someone who wants to learn ought to read the Market Bulletin.
2. What made you want to first subscribe to the Bulletin?
I subscribed the first time when I was in high school. I wanted something to come
in the mail with my name on it, and I might see my picture in. That's why it's such a
good tool for students and those in FFA and 4-H. It's a place they can learn something
COMMISSIONER GARY W. BLACK
about agriculture and they can be recognized for their participation in agriculture there, too.
3. What's your favorite feature of the Bulletin?
The Farm Supplies ad category. Frankly right now, that's our catch-all category, and there is always something inter-
esting there. I have livestock at home, so I probably live vicariously through those Farm Supplies advertisers who have
rough-sawn lumber, as I hope to have a portable sawmill someday and be a Market Bulletin advertiser.
4. If you could bring back any part of a "retro" edition, what would it be?
I think our equine, farmland and pick-your-own issues have always been popular, and as a matter of fact we're
brainstorming right now about having a feature issue once a month: an agritourism issue, a livestock issue. That being
said, I'd love for the Bulletin to be full of reports of regular events at the Atlanta State Farmer's Market. At one time, it
was a real destination, and that's why we've been working hard on our farmer's showcases, to see it again as an activity
center for Georgia agriculture.
5. Where do you see the Bulletin five years from now?
I would love for the Bulletin to be back to being a weekly publication. I'd love for us to be able to expand to 16
pages so that we'd be able to have more stories. But our limiting factor is people. If we had a circulation of 100,000
paid subscribers, we're in the game of being able to achieve some of those goals. I would love to see that, and I encour-
age every subscriber to share with their neighbors and friends why the Market Bulletin should come in their mailbox.
GUEST COLUMN: Steve McWilliams
"Whose woods these are I think I know"
The article's title is found in one of my favorite poems entitled "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" by American poet Robert Frost. As I drive across our forest-rich state, I often wonder how most people would respond to the question "Whose woods are these, anyway?"
My guess is that, unless you are yourself a landowner, or in some way connected to forestry or agriculture, the answer might be that the trees that line our roads and highways really belong to no one. Or, perhaps that they belong to everyone surely the government must own and care for these forests. Most people appreciate Georgia's forested landscape with little thought as to who owns all those trees. Sadly, some may be glad the trees are here to hold the land together until something better comes along. The fact is, 92 percent of Georgia's 24 million acres of forests are owned by tens of thousands of individual private landowners. Often, the forestland has been in the family for multiple generations. Some may own a few acres, others a few hundred, but all are heavily invested in their timber, emotionally and financially. Private forest land is normally managed for multiple objectives family legacy, hunting and other outdoor recreation, wildlife habitat or simply for the beauty and enjoyment that woodlands provide. Among the objectives, nearly all forest landowners derive income from their timber, either through periodic timber harvests, hunting leases or pine straw production, or more likely from a combination of these. Income from the forests is often necessary to support a forest management regime to keep the forests healthy. For some, timber-related income covers the annual property tax bill so that tree farmers can continue ownership of their property. Timber production through harvests that may occur only once or twice in one's lifetime will fund college educations and weddings, recovery from family emergencies or perhaps years of retirement.
Recognizing that Georgia's private forests play a vital economic role in the life of Georgia's timberland owners and tree farmers, the Georgia Forestry Association initiated legislation this year that created a House Study Committee on Timber Security. Theft and trespass which result in unauthorized harvesting on private property, while not epidemic in our state, nevertheless do happen and can result in significant economic harm to the victims.
With the support of House Speaker David Ralston, R-Blue Ridge, and House Judiciary Committee Chair Wendell Willard, R-Sandy Springs, House Resolution 644 established a study committee comprised of House members and representatives from forestry and law enforcement to examine existing laws that address timber theft and timber trespass and to generally gain an understanding of the frequency and impact of timber transactions that are not legal and whose impact is felt throughout the timber procurement process.
HR 644 recognizes that "it is in the best interest of landowners, manufacturers, local governments and the state that timber harvest operations be conducted legally and with the full knowledge and consent of the timber owner" and that many of the statutes that provide recourse for timber theft and trespass victims have not been examined in many years. The study committee will evaluate the conditions surrounding timber security in Georgia and recommend any actions or legislation that it deems necessary to address the subject during the 2014 legislative session.
The study committee, set to begin its work later this summer, will include Rep. Chad Nimmer, R-Blackshear; Rep. Chuck Williams, R-Watkinsville; Rep. Ellis Black, R-Valdosta; and Gordon County Sheriff Mitch Ralston. Sandy Sparks, president of Sparks Lumber Company in Ellijay, rounds out the study committee which will be chaired by Rep. Willard.
Forest landowners wishing to strengthen state laws that address timber security would be wise to let their elected representatives know of their support for this study committee.

agriCULTURE
By Dallas Duncan
Nope, it's not a typo. "agriCULTURE" is what I'm going to call this column. Why? Because that's what the Farmers and Consumers Market Bulletin is. It is the premiere publication geared toward consumers and producers. It is the place consumers will turn to in order to learn about what their food and fiber is, where it comes from, who grows it and where they can buy it. It is the place producers will turn to in order to find seed, feed, farm implements, new livestock and in turn, sell that which they grow.
The Market Bulletin is more than a twice-a-month newspaper.
It's the junction of agriculture and consumer culture. Take pick-your-own farms, for example. We wanted this type of agritourism to take center stage in this issue, and we wanted to do so in a way that would engage both producers and consumers. Having a pick-yourown section on your farm is a great way to engage people in your area in modern agriculture and share your knowledge of agriculture. We feature a pick-your-own farm in Canton, Ga., on page 1. At places like this around the state, Georgians can visit year-round and harvest their own berries, apples, vegetables and more. And whether you're harvesting from your own field or enjoying food from a friend or neighbor's farm, once the picking basket is full of Georgia-grown fresh produce, it's time to take it home and cook a scrumptious meal or dessert, like the feature recipe that will be in each issue. Since it's berry season, we've got the perfect combination of tart and sweet for you to make: blackberry bourbon cobbler served with lemon sorbet. Arty's Garden is back and better than ever, with tips for both master gardeners and burgeoning green thumbs. This edition Arty shares some of his secrets to cultivating bay leaves, a woody-stemmed spice used often in roasts, stews, soups and other dishes. They're a great addition for the home cook or casual gardener ... or if you're like me, a Pinterest-addict with a board devoted to pallet gardens. We want the Market Bulletin to be a source of agriculture news, but sometimes, that can be hard in a 24-hour news cycle. I invite you to join us in our expanded social media presence, where we tweet, post and share stories, breaking agricultural news and farm photos in between print issues. Check us out on Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram and our Bulletin Blog the full listing of web addresses is on page 12. We're always brainstorming new ideas and ways to engage our producers, consumers and anyone interested in Georgia agriculture. But don't worry the print issue of the Market Bulletin isn't going anywhere. We've revamped the layouts, included more original feature stories and photographs. Our staff is always looking for story inspirations. Do you know a producer, restaurant or agriculturalist who's doing something really neat? Tell us about them. Is your professor researching a cutting-edge technique to cultivate crops? We want to know about it! We've even got a new online subscription system to make it easier than ever to get Georgia's favorite agricultural publication, so tell your non-subscriber friends why this is the best $10 they'll spend all year. These are just a few of the ways we're taking the Bulletin to the next level, and hopefully to more people as well. Welcome to the new Market Bulletin, y'all. I hope you like it. Dallas Duncan is the new editor of the Market Bulletin.

FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN
PAGE 11
CONSUMER Q&A: Peachy Keen
Q: How long is Georgia peach season? A: Some varieties from south Georgia can become available as early as May. The Georgia peach season extends through August and even into early September, thanks to late varieties and Georgia>s geography and topography. Trees in north Georgia and at higher elevations will bloom and bear fruit later than their south Georgia counterparts and those at lower elevations. Georgia peaches are available at grocery stores, farmers markets and direct from farms. At the farms and farmers markets, consumers may be able to find out the name of the peach variety they>re buying as well as discover varieties not sold in stores. Don>t be afraid to try a different one this year! Consider buying some extra peaches to dry, freeze or use to make jellies and jams to enjoy some peachy goodness after the fresh peach season is over. Q: Do you have a recipe for peach iced tea? I found one last year but cannot find it now. A: We're happy to help! Here is a recipe from our home economist:
Georgia Sweet Peach Tea
Ingredients:
3 Georgia peaches, peeled, pitted and diced
7 tea bags, regular size 1/2 cup sugar (or sugar to taste)
1 quart water
1 additional Georgia peach, pitted and sliced
6 cups ice cubes
Instructions: 1. Bring water to a boil. Place tea bags in a heatproof container and add boiling water. Let steep for eight minutes. 2. Place four cups of ice in a pitcher and pour in tea. 3. Place diced peaches and sugar in a blender and puree until smooth. Stir the pureed peaches in tea. 4. Serve with remaining ice in glasses. Garnish with remaining peach slices.
Got a question? Visit our website, write to us at 19 MLK Jr. Drive, Room 128, Atlanta, GA 30334, or email arty.schronce@agr.georgia. gov. Consumer Q&As will be answered in print editions of the Market Bulletin as well as on our Bulletin Blog online.
Peach iced tea adds that special touch of Georgia to summer meals, and few drinks are as light and refreshing on a hot summer afternoon.

Award winners are selected by the CCFF board of trustees, which are appointed by President Barack Obama.
Shellenberger said there are several reasons Doyle stood out from the applicant pool, including his work on food safety.
"That is critical to everyone. That's the epitome of our food chain," she said. "What he's doing is incredibly important to all facets of agriculture and agriscience."
Doyle was nominated for the award by Scott Angle, dean of the UGA College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences.
"We continue to work on trying to develop better ways to control and prevent contamination by harmful microbes," Doyle said. "A lot of the work we've been doing recently has to do with produce."
Recently, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention noted produce was a "leading vehicle" for foodborne outbreaks, he said. Doyle and fellow researchers created a produce wash that, while a bit costly, is effective and has many food safety benefits. He said he's honored by being named this year's award winner.
"When you consider that agriculture is the most important profession in the United States and it's the backbone of our country, then this award is a very special honor," Doyle said.
It was Clark's focus on inquiry-based classroom learning and independent study that caught the trustees' eyes.
"I think that's so important because that's how you grow in any field," Shellenberger said. "Her classroom sounds like an environment where everyone would like to spend some time
and explore agriscience." Clark first learned of the award when she was a finalist for
the national Agriscience Teacher of the Year two years ago. A fellow finalist had won the AFBF award previously, and Clark was encouraged to apply for it.
"We do a lot with scientific experiments," she said. "The students think of things they're interested in anything from animal science or wildlife or ag mechanics and then we set up an experiment ... and they just take off. It's just been incredible, the knowledge they're gaining as high school students."
Zippy Duvall, Georgia Farm Bureau president, was at the awards ceremony. He said he's proud that out of 20 award winners over the past four years, three have been Georgians.
"[Agriscience] makes people think out of the box and discover new ways of doing things in agriculture," he said. "We need all the research and technology that our farmers can take advantage of to produce more with less. As fewer and fewer people work on the farm and more and more people demand a food source, we have to be more efficient."
Clark said that's a job for this generation of blooming agriscientists.
"You have to start somewhere. And agriculture I think is just a perfect avenue for that because everyone can relate to that," Clark said. "Everyone has to eat. It helps to develop relevance. That's a big word we hear in education right now if it's relevant to what students are interested in, students are going to want to learn more about it. Once you've motivated that student to develop that interest, then you just sit back and watch."

Following the success of last month's Georgia Grown Farmers Showcase, Georgia Com-
missioner of Agriculture Gary W. Black is excited to announce that this event will be return-

Showcase events are aimed at increasing the consumer retail experience at the Atlanta State

Located off I-75 in Forest Park, the 150-acre market is one of the largest of its kind in the
world. Georgia Farmers Sheds 13 and 14 will be closed to through-traffic so visitors can park
and walk through, mingling with vendors from across the state as they shop.
Showcase visitors will find a wide range of local Georgia-grown seasonal fruits and veg-
etables, an antique tractor show, food safety demonstrations, a chance to meet the Georgia
Watermelon Queen, games for children and an opportunity to win free prizes from radio sta-

BERRIES: You-pick brings consumers to the farm

still slightly red, they will ripen up after a day or two. When it comes to starting a blueberry crop, he
advises starting out with three bushes of at least two varieties. The first year they need water, but after that, he said they're almost entirely self-sufficient. They do need acidic soil and though they work well in the sun, they do not need full sunlight to be successful.
In addition to the picking enterprise, the barn itself is home to a small farm store where visitors can pick up their buckets and browse homemade jams, jellies, orchard honey and Mary Jo's watercolor artwork.
Many adult pickers bring their kids with them, and the Morgans have something special on those occasions a blackberry plant children can take home and grow themselves.
"These grow very well in other words, easy," Jack Morgan said. "I hate to give children something they put in the ground and it dies."
Norton advises producers who want to create a pick-your-own operation to check with their local government, Extension services and farm insurance agent to determine additional regulations, requirements and liabilities. For those who don't already farm but are interested in following the Morgan's hobby pick-your-own model, she said to see what such farms exist in the area already, visit them and ask their advice.
"Separate your you-pick from your commercial growing sites so there will not be any confusion," Norton said. "Look at what you might need: bags and buckets; scales if done by weight; water, restrooms, payment methods."
She said visiting pick-your-own operations is an opportunity to experience the farm, especially for consumers who aren't able to grow in their own backyard or apartment garden.
"You are able to take your kids to see where their food comes from, have a little physical activity and
spend time together that will create a lifetime of memories," Norton said. "It supports our local farmers and best of all, it's Georgia-grown!"
