EstablishEd 1917 a CEntury of sErviCE GEORGIA DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE GARY W. BLACK, COMMISSIONER WEDNESDAY, JUNE 1, 2022 VOL. 105, NO. 11 COPYRIGHT 2022 Campaign aims to normalize discussions about mental health in rural Georgia By Jay Jones jay.jones@agr.georgia.gov TIFTON Farmers and agriculture workers dealing with mental stress are getting help thanks to several organizations' ongoing mental health initiatives, including the University of Georgia Extension Service and the Georgia Department of Agriculture. The 2022 Farm Stress Summit held at the University of Georgia's Tifton Conference Center on May 19 brought several organizations together to discuss improving access to mental health care in rural Georgia. The meeting was part of an ongoing effort to address the problem that started with UGA The Georgia Farm and Ranch Stress Assistance Network (www. farmandranchstress.com) offers information on mental health first aid classes and Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR) suicide prevention workshops online. Rural Georgia: Growing Stronger (www. extension.uga.edu/rural) gathers resources of the University of Georgia to address rural mental health issues. The site offers resources for care providers and resources from state and federal agencies and agricultural organizations. Farm State of Mind (www.fb.org/land/ fsom) is an initiative of the American Farm Bureau Federation to help farmers and their families connect with care providers. Anyone who needs immediate and confidential help is encouraged to call the Georgia Crisis and Access Line at 1-800-715-4225 or the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8225. Extension's Rural Georgia: Growing Stronger campaign in 2019. 10 0 t1h9A17nniv2e0r1s7ary Mark McCann, UGA associate dean of extension, said the summit's purpose was to continue looking for ways to assist people in finding help for their mental well-being. "With practice, you get better, and the more we talk, the better we can get," he said. "We are here to talk about finding a deeper understanding of our communities' mental health needs and get better at growing knowledge, awareness, and networking together." Concern for mental health issues in rural areas grew from a 2018 study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that showed farming had the third-highest suicide rate of any occupation. Additional research showed that in Georgia, the rate for farmers was about 51 per 100,000, compared with 14.9 per 100,000 for the overall population of workers. The Growing Stronger initiative started a pilot program in four counties to provide information to farmers at annual commodity production meetings. Andrea Scarrow, director of the UGA Extension Southwest District, said extension agents are not trained in providing mental health services, but they have a unique opportunity to help. "We know we are the friendly faces on farms with our farm families, and they typically confide in our agents because they know us so well and we speak their language," Scarrow said. The pilot program offered blood pressure checks at the production meetings and flyers for local mental health services. A healthcare professional also spoke during the production meetings about mental well-being. Scarrow said the effort was successful, and UGA Extension is looking to expand the pilot program. "We would provide (mental health) resources like we would on any other issue. It's been phenomenal to see the response from our growers and to see our agents become more confident and at ease in their ability to talk to farmers and not shy away from the opportunity to make the change." Jennifer Dunn, regional services administrator for the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities, also spoke during the production meetings. She said one significant challenge is getting people to feel com- fortable talking about mental illness and encouraging them to get help. "We tried to make the conversation about mental health just like you would about any other help issue," Dunn said. "I teach a lot of mental health first aid classes, and we talk about when someone has cancer, we do fundraising, we pick up their kids from school, we take them casseroles. Why don't we do the same thing with someone struggling with a mental health issue? If we can, normalize it just by talking about it, like we're doing today."

For par- ents and caregivers, that can be a challenge. The balance be- tween needed rest and healthy activities is often delicate. At the Georgia Forestry Commission, we love learn- ing and teaching. We believe structured and unstructured activities as simple as enjoying F O R E S T R Y the outdoors can lead to unex- MATTERS pected learning opportunities, enhanced personal growth, and improved skills through- out life. Did you know a mounting body of scientific research is proving that spending time near trees and forests has mean- ingful benefits for you and your community? Studies show trees care for our brains, lungs, fitness, immune systems, and peace of mind, to name just a few. Check out https://health- ytreeshealthylives.org to learn more about this amazing link and specific ways to reap the benefits. Education plays a big part in what we do at the Georgia Forestry Commission and summer is the perfect time to ex- plore the resources we and our partners offer to share all the benefits and fun of trees and forests. You won't find boredom on this list! Here are 12 simple and easy activities you can do out- doors, including a scavenger hunt! https://www.plt.org/ educator-tips/nature-walk-activities Check out the GFC YouTube Channel, https://www.you- tube.com/user/GeorgiaTrees, where you can find videos on aging a tree using tree rings, a look at wildland fire- fighters' equipment, and even an exercise on how to make paper. Making your own paper is fun for the whole family. Project Learning Tree's "Family Activities" are designed for ages 3-15. https://www.plt.org/activities-for-families/. These easy-to-do projects get you outside in your own backyard, in local parks, or even off for a walk in the Cloudland Canyon State Park on the western edge of Lookout Mountain is one of many great places to enjoy the outdoors in Georgia.

Other great resources include Georgia Public Broadcasting's Virtual Learning Journey through forests for grades 3-12 at https://www.gpb.org/education/forestry. Kids can participate in this interactive journey through Georgia's working forests and learn about ecosystems, life cycles, forestry management, sustainability, careers, and more. It's fun to try a simple "sit-spot activity" over the summer. Pick a place in your yard, local park, or forest where you can just observe nature. Take a journal and write down the things that you see, hear, and smell. Visit once a day, once a week, every other week, whatever you choose, and at the end of summer compare your observations. One extraordinary summer camp to consider for rising seventh and eighth graders is the Billy Lancaster summer forestry camp at Lake Jackson, July 10-14. (Billylancastercamp.com). Campers learn about wildlife ecology, how to identify trees, and the value and importance of forests in their daily lives. Best of all, registration is still open and industry sponsorships make it possible for this camp to be offered free of charge. Still want more? Additional resources and activities can be found on our GFC website's "Learn & Explore" tab at GaTrees.org. Georgia Cooking: Goodson's Peach-Pecan Crepes Ingredients Crepes: 2 eggs 3/4 cup whole milk 3/4 cup water 1 cup flour 4 Tbsps melted butter Pinch salt 1 tsp maple extract (optional) 1/4 cup Oliver Farms Pecan oil (set aside for crepe pan) Filling and topping: (1) 4-oz jar honey cinnamon pecan butter 1 jar peach pepper jelly 8 oz softened cream cheese 8 oz candied pecans Directions Crepes: Combine all the ingredients, except pecan oil, into a blender and blend until all ingredients are incorporated. Chill mixture at least 30 minutes or until needed. To cook crepes, heat crepe pan or large flat pan on medium heat. Coat pan with pecan oil. Pour or ladle 1/4 cup of crepe mix into the pan while tilting back and forth to coat the heated pan in a very thin layer the batter should start to set immediately. When small bubbles begin to form, gently lift corners of the crepe to loosen. Flip over and cook for an additional 30 seconds, then turn out onto a paper towel lined plate. Repeat until all batter is gone. Filling and topping: Make the filling by blending pecan butter and softened cream cheese together. Heat pepper jelly slightly in the microwave, about 10 seconds, for drizzling over the crepes. Assembly: To serve, spread crepe with filling, fold into thirds lengthwise, or fold into quarters to form a wedge shape. Drizzle with warm peach pepper jelly and sprinkle with candied pecans.

Protect firefly habitat this season By Becky Griffin and Jason Schmidt UGA Cooperative Extension College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences Georgia is home to more than 50 species of fireflies or lightning bugs more than any other U.S. state. The dancing light patterns we enjoy in our gardens and landscapes are an important, and nostalgic, part of Georgia Tall flowers, grasses and shrubs in your pollinator garden can serve as a safe place for female fireflies waiting for males. (Photo by Katie Walker) summer evenings. To protect these insects and ensure that we continue to enjoy them, it is important to understand their lifecycle and habitat needs. Fireflies are in the insect family Lampyridae and are not actually flies or bugs, but nocturnal beetles. The glowing light produced by adult fireflies, called bioluminescence, comes from light-producing lantern organs in their abdomen where the chemicals luciferase and luciferin work with other substances in the insect's body to produce light without generating heat. The light flashes can vary from yellow to green depending on the species. The most common species in Georgia is Photinus pyralis, or the common eastern firefly. Aside from having the lantern organs on the underside of the abdomen, Photinus pyralis have a pale border around each outer wing (elytra) and a shield plate that covers the top of the insect's head. The flash patterns of fireflies are unique to each species and allow these insects to locate potential mates. In general, the males flash as they fly, while the females flash as they wait in tall grass or on other plants. Watch for flash patterns of various species occurring at a specific time of night and specific times of year. For example, Photinus carolinus is a species known for its synchronous flashing, blinking on and off in unison. These are found at dark in the summer in areas around the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Once a male finds a mate through tracking flash patterns, mated females generally deposit eggs on the ground under mulch, around log bark or in other moist forest debris. In approximately three weeks, the eggs hatch into insect larvae that are often luminescent -- they glow. The crawling, soft-bodied larvae feed on invertebrates such as slugs, grubs or earthworms before transitioning into a pupal stage, when they are in a case-like structure similar to a cocoon. The adult insects emerge in mid-summer to begin the lifecycle again. Although some fireflies are predatory, the adults of most species feed on nectar and likely help with pollination in gardens. The tall flowers, grasses and shrubs of your pollinator garden can serve as a safe place for females waiting for males. These insects are in adult form for about two months, though the entire lifecycle can take one year. Here is how to provide habitat for fireflies in your landscape: Add flowering plants of varying heights. Include tall grasses as well as trees and shrubs in your landscape. Turn off outdoor night lighting during mid-summer. Light pollution is thought to disrupt firefly mating and could be a major cause of firefly population decline. Leave parts of your landscape undisturbed with leaf litter and plant debris as safe places for the insects to deposit eggs and for overwintering. Provide a clean water source on your property. This could be as simple as a birdbath lined with rocks or a plant pot bottom with filled pebbles and water. The insects need access to water without the possibility of drowning. Limit pesticides on your property.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 1, 2022 FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN 404-656-3722 agr.georgia.gov PAGE 15 Mental Health: Family, friends and neighbors are essential to recognizing, helping with mental wellbeing Continued From Page 1 She also helped connect local care providers in the Growing Stronger pilot program. The Rev. Hugh Ward, a chaplain at Colquitt Regional Medical Center in Moultrie, advocates for mental healthcare in southwest Georgia and helped establish counseling services at the hospital for anyone who needs help. Ward said that the effects of mental health could go beyond the individual's suffering and can lead to domestic violence. The hospital helped establish a battered women's shelter and child advocacy center because of domestic violence, and in many cases, the cause was mental health stress in the family. Keeping the farm going is the biggest issue Ward encounters among farmers. Ward said he was late to the summit because he met with a farm family whose crops were not doing well due to the recent lack of rain. There is less stress for farmers who can afford irrigation, but dry-land farmers depend on the rain. "They are facing the fact that, `if this crop does not come out, and I can't pay off my farm loan from last year, that means I cannot finance my farm loan for next year to get seed in the ground and fertilizer and diesel for my tractor so I can plant it,'" Ward said. "Those are the issues I'm dealing with." Talking about mental health illness was a recurring topic at the summit. Spouses, doctors, lawyers, extension agents and other farmers are essential in the effort to know the warning signs of stress and how to help, according to Anna Scheyett, professor at UGA's School of Social Work. Scheyett said mental health awareness is a community-wide effort to support one another. Equipping the community to recognize the signs of mental distress and empowering them to reach out to those in need will make the biggest difference, she said. "No farmer in his right mind is going to listen to some professor from Athens tell him what to do," Scheyett said. "They are going to listen to their own community." the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Brooklyn Robins.

I'm Georgie, the Georgia Grown mascot. I travel the state of Georgia promoting our No. 1 industry, agriculture! I find myself passing through many small towns with very interesting but little-known histories. Some of these small towns are preserving their history with colorful murals. One of the first murals that really caught my attention is in Mansfield. This mural can be seen while traveling south on Ga. Highway 11. It pays tribute to several notable people, places and things from Mansfield's past and present: The Charlie Elliott Wildlife Center, a wildlife preserve named for the Covington native who served as the first director of Georgia's State Parks program, then as state commissioner of natural resources, and then as the first director of the game and fish commission (now known as INGREDIENTS Combine peach pie filling 1 (21 oz.) can peach pie filling pineapple, pecans, cinna 3 cups mini marshmallows nutmeg; stir until well m Whip, stirring gently unti 1 (8 oz.) can crushed pineapple, well drained 1/3PcuEpAchCopHpedFpLecUanFs F SALARbDeefforirgeersaetrevifnogr.at least 4 1/8 to 1/4 tsp. cinnamon INGREDIENTS 1 (21 oz.) can peach piepfiilnlinchg nutmeg 3 cu1ps(8mionzi .m) aprashcmkaaglleowCsool Whip 1 (8 oz.) can crushed pineapple, well drained Rural towns like Mansfield keep the past aliv1e/w3itchucpolocrhfuol pmpueradls.p(eLeceaLnasncaster/GDA) Combine peach pie filling, marshmallow pineapple, pecans, cinnamon, and nutmeg; stir until well mixed.
