BLACK, COMMISSIONER WEDNESDAY, JUNE 11, 2014 VOL. 97, NO. 12 COPYRIGHT 2014 By Dallas Duncan America is the top ice cream consuming country in the world, according to the National Ice Cream Retailers Association. It's safe to say that a portion of Georgia's 1.56 billion gallons of milk produced last year went toward furthering this trend. "Georgia does love its ice cream," said Jake Rothschild, chief executive officer of Jake's Ice Cream in Atlanta. Georgia's frozen dairy treat companies run the gamut. Many are artisanal, featuring playful flavor combinations. Others bring in family history and still more focus on expanding the Southern palate. "Our tagline is actually `Southern-inspired gelato,'" said Wes Jones, co-owner of Atlanta's Honeysuckle Gelato. "There wasn't a whole lot of gelato in the Southeast and a lot of people are still fairly unfamiliar with what gelato was. We thought it'd be fun to take a Southern approach to some of our flavors." Gelato is a richer, denser version of ice cream, Jones said. "The technical difference is it's got less air and less fat. We whip it colder and slower," said Jackson Smith, Honeysuckle co-owner. The defining factors between three of the most popular dairy treats ice cream, gelato and sherbet are fat and air content, which is called overrun. "Butterfat is kind of the signifying factor for different types of ice cream," said Ari Fleischer, founder of Frozen Pints. "Your super premium ice cream, it's typically very high butterfat. You have low-fat ice cream and then at the other end you have gelato, high flavor and very dense." In addition, sherbet is low milkfat content mixed with fruit, Smith said. Though ice cream is a delight for kids of all ages, Fleischer takes it to the next level by making an adults-only dessert it's flavored with beer. Frozen Pints fuses traditional flavors with complementary beers, he said. It's also done collaboration flavors with Georgia breweries, including a Moo-Hoo Mint with Athens-based Terrapin Beer Company. "You really want the beer flavor to come through," Fleischer said. "The other challenging thing is making sure it has a creamy texture. Beer is mostly water. When you add all that water to ice cream, it gets really icy." A few hours south of Frozen Pints' shop is one of Georgia's most well-known dairy destinations. Leopold's Ice Cream in Savannah has been in business since 1919, when president Stratton Leopold's father went into business with his brothers. Leopold takes the concept of Georgia-grown ice cream seriously: they make everything, including their own toppings. "We make it the old-fashioned way in batch freezers," Leopold said. "We don't have a high overrun, the amount of air that's in it. A pint should weigh about a pound, so it's dense ice cream."

Macon Farmers Showcase successful start to 2014 event season By Dallas Duncan Get your shopping bags ready the 2014 Georgia Grown Farmers Showcase season kicked off last month at the Macon State Farmers Market. "It is absolutely bigger and better than we hoped for," market manager Happy Wyatt said. "People are hearing the radio ad, people saw the TV spots this morning. Word is out there and people are wanting to attend." Hundreds of visitors traveled to the middle Georgia event and were delighted with a variety of produce, meat, jams, sauces, crafts and more by area Georgia Grown members, a number of which plan to set up at the upcoming Atlanta, Savannah and Moultrie showcases. The showcases are regular events for Madeleine Warren, managing partner for Savannah's Edibelle's. "We started with six flavors of cookies in 2011 and then added chocolate-covered, then added barbecue sauce and then added the pretzels," Warren said. Edibelle's praline snack mix was a Flavor of Georgia finalist, earning the company a complimentary Georgia Grown silver-level membership. "We decided to get involved because it was a great way for us to get our name out there and go to different areas of the state and introduce people to our products," Warren said. "These events are great. ... We've gotten to know other vendors; we can all help each other out, too. It's worth the effort to get up a little early in the morning to set up and meet people and talk to people." Davis Yaun of Whispering Pines Farm in Soperton, Ga., enjoyed interacting with customers and sharing the story of his operation. Yaun's farm specializes in the luffa, which he refers to as "nature's exfoliator." "To my knowledge, we're the only ones See MARKET, page 7 Dalton Adams, 8, from Gibson, Ga., mans the Adams Family Farms booth at the Macon Georgia Grown Farmers Showcase on May 31. Fresh produce, specialty foods and free samples of Georgia Grown products were big draws for customers at the event. Photo by Dallas Duncan GEORGIA GROWN PROFILE: Simply Southard Bakery and Catering The `perfect partnership' for a heritage-based business By Maggie Dudacek, summer intern After 16 years of working in the corporate world, Margarie Southard decided to leave her past life behind so that she could focus on her true passions: cooking, baking and canning. In January 2002, Simply Southard Bakery and Catering opened for business in Cumming, Ga. Southard is able to grow more than 80 percent of the produce that she uses for her treats by harvesting fruits and vegetables from trees planted by her parents and grandparents. "I make my canned goods the way my mother taught me, `one pot at a time,'" she said. "The fruits are picked from apple trees, pear trees, fig bushes, etc. that were planted by my parents and grandparents. I still live on the farmland that my parents and grandparents did. I am literally Georgia Grown myself." That's why the program is a "perfect partnership" for her business, Southard said. The Georgia Grown membership offers many benefits but the re- lationship between other vendors and consumers is what stands out to Simply Southard. The network of vendors provides the opportunity for the bakery to meet with other vendors and utilize their resources. With the Georgia Grown membership comes the right to display the logo. "The Georgia Grown logo ... provides another level of trust to our customers," Southard said. This display demonstrates that Simply Southard is dedicated to producing products that are made with high-quality local ingredients.

Georgia's 242 dairy families take pride in feeding Americans and continue to make steady increases in production while improving milk quality and NEWBERRY reducing environmental impacts. Our cows: Georgia is home to more than 84,000 dairy cows. For generations, Georgia dairy families have diligently cared for their cows. Nutritious diets, comfortable living conditions and prompt treatment of illnesses are all part of taking care of their cows each day. During milking, dairymen and their employees constantly check and monitor their cows, so that they may promptly treat illnesses to ensure a healthy herd. A healthy cow produces more milk and a higher quality product, which is more profitable for dairymen. Our land: Georgia dairy families are committed to the care of the environment and their communities. Their families live and work on their farms and understand the importance of protecting the environment for future generations. Georgia dairymen are responsible users of water and use every drop to its maximum benefit. Clean water is used to cool milk and wash cows, and then it is recycled to flush manure from barn floors and irrigated onto crops that are growing as feed for cows. Cow manure is anything but waste on a dairy farm. Georgia dairies collect and store manure on their farms. The manure is added back into the soil, enriching the land with organic nutrients and reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers and additional water use. Your milk: Georgia dairy families are committed to producing the nutritious, high-quality milk that their consumers desire. Dairymen across the Southeast have signed contracts with dairy processors pledging not to use artificial growth hormones on their farms. Georgia dairy farms also follow strict protocols when milking cows to ensure that the safest product ends up on the consumer's table. Each Georgia dairy farm is inspected by the Georgia Department of Agriculture and rigorous testing is performed on each load of milk that arrives to the processing plant to ensure the highest quality. Every tanker truck of milk in Georgia is tested for the presence of antibiotic residues before it is unloaded at the processing plant. If the milk shows no evidence of antibiotics, it is pumped into the plant's holding tanks for further processing. If the milk does not pass antibiotic testing, the entire truckload of milk is discarded and farm samples are tested to find the source of the antibiotic residues. Regulatory action is taken against the farm with the positive antibiotic test. Georgia dairies care: Georgia dairy families care and take their job of feeding the world seriously. Successful dairy farms recognize the importance of meeting consumer demands while responsibly protecting the environment and caring for their cows. Join our industry as we celebrate June Dairy Month and honor Georgia's dairy farm families and the wholesome, nutritious milk they produce.

No doubt it means different things to different folks. As a farmer for 60 years and an observer of the farming scene, I would like to tell you what sustain- able agriculture means to me. First of all, it is people who have the many skills required to success- fully produce farm products on an ECHOLS ongoing basis and the willingness to endure the toil, to take the risks and make the sacrifices necessary to carry on in spite of adversity and hardship. A sustain- able farmer has an almost mystical love for the land. He or she must have a vision that sweeps across years and generations. We must realize that the decisions we make and the actions we take many times have an impact far beyond our own years. We must plan, build and plant, foregoing immediate gratification, for the ones who come after us. Next, farmers who expect to farm more than a year or two must make a profit. Profits sustain a farmer and his family. A reasonable profit built into the price of any product is insurance that the shelves in the marketplace will have products on them next week, next year and next generation. Third, we must protect the land. We no longer have the option, as many earlier societies had, of "wearing out" the land and moving on. Our No. 1 problem is soil erosion. We cannot farm soil that has washed down the river. We use cover crops, selection of appropriate crops and crop rotations among other tools to help control soil erosion. Depletion of and imbalances of plant nutrients must be ad- dressed. The technological advances in determining crop nutrition needs, and in precision application of the exact amounts needed by each crop and each field, is exciting and very important in sustaining production over many years. We must use pesticides judiciously and intelligently. Without them, we will have an epidemic of a disease (of humans) called "hollow-belly." It can be fatal. I have personally seen crops completely ruined by plant pests and diseases. We can no longer use fire as help in controlling insects and diseases. Again crop rotations help in this area, too. Pesticide rotations are helpful. Most of the pesticides of a generation ago are no longer in use and many of the newer ones leave no residue and are safer to use. On our farm, we have been using much of the same land for more than 100 years. It is more productive than ever, providing more and more people with safe, nutritious and affordable fruits and vegetables. God gets the credit for all of this. Finally, what good is sustainable agricultural production without a food distribution system? Though many of us make our livelihood marketing directly to the consumer, most of our people most of the time must buy their food from stores, supermarkets and restaurants. Our food distribution system is vast, complex and very efficient. It involves not only farmers, but brokers, transporters, processors, distributors, packaging, storage facilities as well as retailers and many others. Let's be sustainable! Jimmy Echols is the third generation of farmers at Jaemor Farms in Alto, Ga. Echols' grandfather started the operation as Echols' Orchards in 1912. In 1962 Echols purchased the farm from his father George. It became Jaemor Farms, named for Echols' initials and part of his wife's maiden name, in 1981. Today, Echols, his wife Valvoreth, their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren still farm the family's land and run two farm markets in Alto and Commerce, Ga. agriCULTURE Letter from the editor I will never forget the first time I milked cows. It was a required lab for my animal science practicum class. We had a weekly lab and a separate milking lab at the University of Georgia Teaching Dairy. On the day we signed up for milking labs, the entire class scuttled up to the front and made a beeline for every 3 p.m. lab time. You always knew who was absent that day because they were the poor souls who automatically were slotted for the 3 a.m. shift. The day of my lab arrived. I walked into the dairy, located roughly 15 minutes from campus, prepared for this latest animal science adventure, which started with a quick milking tutorial. First off, before you dip the teats, you have to do some quick hand-milking to get the milk flow going. According to the woman who showed me this technique, it is called "stripping." So yes, I did call my mother after that lab and tell her I stripped for class credit. Once the stripping is done, the teats are dipped in an iodine solution to kill any environmental bacteria so it doesn't get into the milk. After the teats are clean and the previous cow's milk is emptied out of the container, it's time to get the show on the road. Oh, and after milking is done, the teats get dipped again in a different sanitizing solution. Well, fun fact, it is easy to get iodine on your hands and not easy to get it off. I looked jaundiced by the time I got done milking. I was also covered in manure. Despite my best attempts to be an awesome animal science major, there were just some cows that did not want to get along with me during my milking lab. Cow doesn't want to be milked? Fine. She kicks the octopus-like milking contraption and teat cups go flying. So does poop. Cow has teats that don't fit into the milking machine? Honey, you are outta luck. Or your arm will go numb from holding the cup up to her quarter since it won't stay there on its own. Cow is taller than you? This is surprisingly easy when you're five-foot-two-inches tall and they're on a platform, so their udders are not within reach. In addition to the yellow hands and arms and the poop-covered hoodie, I also left the dairy with a few hard knots in the back of my head, which will happen when you have to stick your head through the platform bars to reach an udder. And when tall cows kick and you're in this compromising position, your immediate reflex is to jump backward ... into the platform bars. Cow has a quarter that's "going"? Yeah, when that happens, don't try to be a proactive animal science major and milk it anyway. You realize your mistake, panic and wonder what your lab grade will be if your professor finds out it was you who milked a cow that might have mastitis. Cow named Mona? UGA students, beware. I'm not sure if Mona is still around the dairy. But if she is, may this column serve as a warning to you, because you will (I know from experience) look like a complete idiot and serve as the laughingstock of the UGA Dairy for the next week. Mona had huge teats. They were shaped like upside-down light bulbs and were really wide. I stripped this cow for a solid two minutes and could get nothing to come out. I called the dairy manager over. "Hehehe, you've got our trick cow!" Excuse me. I have the what cow? Apparently, Mona does not milk well on the milking machine, but if we still hand milked, she'd do wonders. And I quote: "Whatcha gotta do is squeeze at the very top o' the teat with your thumb and first finger, and then ya gotta squeeze down with each finger individually. You gotta get a rhythm goin'." Suffice to say that Dallas did not get a rhythm going, as luck would have it. But I tried, and that's the important thing. The other important thing is that I guess if we end up surviving an apocalypse with naught but a Holstein mama, at least I can get something to drink.

Photo by Dallas Duncan growing commercially in the state of Georgia, at least the only one that's a Georgia Grown member," he said. "It's the only product you can think of that I can grow it, and it's not like the berries or the fruits where I have to find an immediate market. After these are dried they're OK a month later; they're OK a year later." He had samples available for demonstration and even seed- lings for shoppers to take home. "Being in on the early stages of Georgia Grown has been exciting because we've been able to watch Georgia Grown grow as well as us growing," Yaun said. Local farms of all sizes were represented in Macon. Largescale producers Lane Southern Orchards and Dickey Farms both had seasonal produce and treats on hand. "These peaches, it's not like they've been in a cargo container for weeks driving across the nation from California," said Dickey Farms' Steven Lewis. "They're literally from across the line in Crawford County. It's about as local as getting in your car and driving for 20 minutes." Liz Garner, owner-operator of Atlanta-based pickle company Garner Girls, drew visitors in with samples of her two heritage pickles. The basic pickle recipe Garner Girls uses has been in their family for more than 70 years. "I came up with a second flavor, if you will, of a habanero sweet. That bit of vinegar, the crunch, that sweet, then you get that little bit of spice," she said. "I love to go to all the showcases ... You can come out, you can get fresh vegetables and of IF YOU GO ...

The event was broadcast live on a local radio station and drew customers statewide. Patty Graybill of Wrightsville, Ga., drives around with her friend Lisa McCarty of Harrison, Ga., every Saturday morning to farmers markets. They learned about the Macon showcase through a TV ad and drove more than an hour to stop by. "We love fresh farmers market items," McCarty said. "We came for tomatoes, but now we're going home with tomatoes, honey, produce and some peach bread, and had some coffee while we were here."

The name may be unfamiliar now, but you will be hearing it more and probably asking for it in the years ahead. Calibrachoa is related to petunias. Its flowers look like mini petunias and its leaves are similar, but smaller, to petunia leaves as well. One of calibrachoa's common names, "million bells," speaks to its profusion of bell-shaped flowers. Calibrachoa, or million bells if you prefer, prefers full sun and is ideal for pots and hanging baskets as well as the front of flower beds and perennial borders. It is refined and compact enough to be suitable for some rock gardens. It may survive mild winters, but is usually treated as an annual none survived in my garden last winter after sailing through the previous one. Flower colors include shades of violet, blue, pink, red, magenta, yellow, bronze, orange and white. The range is wide enough to go bold and choose contrasting colors or to select a subtle color scheme with similar harmonizing combinations. Calibrachoa works well with its larger-flowered petunia cousins. It also combines well with scaevola, geranium, creeping verbena, narrow-leaf zinnia, Mexican heather (Cuphea hyssopifolia), bat-face cuphea (Cuphea llavea), marigold, mealycup salvia, clasping heliotrope, bloodflower (Asclepias curassavica), butterflyweed, gomphrena, purple heart, plectranthus, dusty miller, Cooper's iceplant and `Golden Sword' yucca. A horticulturist or landscape designer at your local nursery or garden center may offer more suggestions and ideas. Calibrachoa is relatively new on the market and not as widely known as some other flowers. However, with its durability and long period of blooming, it is making a name for itself and gaining more admirers every year. Look for it at Georgia nurseries and garden centers. Arty Schronce is the Department's resident gardening expert. He is a lifelong gardener and a horticulture graduate of North Carolina State University who encourages everyone to make a friend in the garden.

PAGE 12 FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN 404-656-3722 Farm-to-table restaurant tour spotlights eateries, producers throughout Georgia By Dallas Duncan There's a new tool in town furthering the farm-to-fork movement. Edible Agriculture Tour Georgia, a grantfunded partnership between Georgia Grown, Georgia Restaurant Association, Taste of Atlanta and Locurean, is traveling the state this year to bring together chefs and the farmers who produce their food. "EAT Georgia is to bring farmers and chefs together ... and really highlight some new farmers and educate people about what's around them," said Whit Whitmire, founder of the agribusiness social network site Locurean. The ultimate goal is to increase restaurants purchasing food from local producers, he said. Some EAT Georgia events are set up as supper clubs with sit-down meals. Others, such as the one in Athens on May 18, are dropin style, allowing interaction between patrons, chefs and producers. "What's really neat to me is to shed the spotlight on some towns that might not get better traction for local foods," Whitmire said. Past events were held in Jekyll Island, Roswell, Atlanta, Thomasville and Athens, with upcoming tours scheduled for Savannah, Augusta, Dahlonega, Acworth and Saint Simons Island. Portions of the proceeds go back to support the farmers whose food is used at EAT Georgia events, Whitmire said. "We're actually one of the farms that supplied food," DaySprings Farms' Simone Brett said at the Athens event. "The chef from Last Resort approached us about it, so we wanted to come and see the event and everything. We The "white trash gyro," prepared for the Athens Edible Agriculture Tour by Kyle English of Last Resort Grille, features whole-wheat flour and greens from DaySprings Farms in Danielsville, Ga. The dish included a whole-wheat flatbread topped with stewed collard greens, pulled pork and a spicy tzatziki sauce, garnished with a peppery mizuna green. Photo by Dallas Duncan have mizuna, which is the little garnish on top, collard greens and the bread was actually made with wheat we grew and milled on our farm." There's a bit of a learning curve to producing consistent, seasonal produce for restaurants, Nathan Brett said. "Athens is really good about chefs in that they and restaurants are very conscious of seasonality of the produce," he said. "I think overall, the restaurants we sell to do a really good job of trying to source as much of their produce locally, from local farmers, as possible." In addition to DaySprings, participating producers were Anderson Farms of Madison County, Front Field Farm in Covington; Sundance Family Farm of Athens and Thomasville-based Schermer Pecan Company. "Our No. 1 mission, so to speak, is first off introduce farmers to chefs and make sure we're making connections for them. Then the consumer would come to that restaurant and eat the food that the farmer showed to the chef," said Dale DeSena, Taste of Atlanta founder. Though EAT Georgia events serve as opportunities for growers to market their products to restaurants, they also serve as sounding boards for participating chefs, DeSena said. Chefs are encouraged to think out of the box and prepare dishes that aren't on their menus. At the Athens event, visitors sampled foods from several area businesses. The Branded Butcher was represented by a salad of radishes, arugula and chicken hearts. Catering company Epting Events put its famous pecan pralines on the table, served with beer ice cream, spiced sea salt and a peachy syrup. Heirloom Caf, the restaurant hosting the event, presented a vegetable and pork salad with pickled Easter egg radishes in pink, purple and white. And to round things off, Last Resort Grille's cook brought a plate dubbed the "white trash gyro:" whole-wheat flatbread topped with pulled pork, collards, a Cajun-style tzatziki sauce and garnished with a mizuna leaf the ingredients sourced primarily from the Bretts' farm in Danielsville. Atlanta resident John Piazza called the Athens tour "outstanding." "I love the local produce, I love the idea of farm-to-table and buying and sourcing locally. We're big proponents of that in our house," he said. "I've tried everything but dessert and I've gone back for seconds on almost everything so far. I'm not done yet." DAIRY: Frozen treat companies proud of dedication to Georgia-grown ingredients From Page 1 headquartered in Athens, Tenn., but its Braselton, Ga., center draws thousands of visitors each year. "My grandfather actually started the business when he was milking more cows than he could drink the milk," Mayfield President Emeritus Scottie Mayfield said. "In 1977, we had the opportunity to buy the ice cream company in Atlanta by the name of Aristocrat. ... We grew that and it wasn't long literally in just a few years we became the No. 1 ice cream in Atlanta. And I'm talking a virtually 60-county area of north Georgia." Now owned by Dean Foods, Mayfield focuses its ice cream business on a slightly different customer base, the home customer. Just like the companies that create them, Georgia ice cream flavors are everything from traditional to unusual. "We're traditional. We have made other flavors ... We'll bring them in as a seasonal thing sometimes, but not standard, not at all," Leopold said. "When the airline Jet Blue started flying here several months ago, I had the idea ... to create a flavor. So we created Jet Blueberry. It's Georgia blueberries." Jake's also has a flavor honoring a Georgia airline. Delta approached the company to cre- ate an anniversary flavor that includes Biscoff cookies, caramel and Bailey's Irish Cream. Its most popular flavor, though, Chocolate Slap Yo Mama, was created not by design, but by accident when an employee "messed up" the flavor she was creating and combined two flavors into one. "She made this concoction that had basically pulverized oreos in it and chocolate chips and chocolate syrup and chocolate fudge," Rothschild said. "She said, `Well I think it's good.' So we tried the ice cream. It is our No. 1 best seller." Smith, who got into the gelato business after working in New York, said the credo he's learned is that if it can go into a blender, chances are it can go into an ice cream. "My favorites are honestly like, herbs and citrus. Simple stuff like honey lavender, lemon basil," Smith said. "One of the ones that we have in a pint now, Snacks on a Plane, is Biscoff gelato and we've got peanuts and pretzels in it everything you get on an airplane." Though their ingredients may differ, Georgia ice cream makers are dedicated to honoring their state. Honeysuckle Gelato gets dairy mix from Waynesboro-based Southern Swiss Dairy and Frozen Pints sources from Dean Jackson Smith, co-owner of Atlanta-based Honeysuckle Gelato, prepares to make a batch of his popular frozen treat. Honeysuckle uses a pre-made dairy mix from Southern Swiss Dairy in Waynesboro, Ga., to make its gelato, which has less fat and air than ice creams.

"I tell people, you drink our milk for your physical health and you eat our ice cream for your mental health," Mayfield said. "I just feel like it's a part of the industry that's fun. It's hard to eat ice cream and not be smiling."
