Myths of Food Price Increases Debunked by UF IFAS Expert
Florida Extension economist Dr. Karl Kepner counters common beliefs about rising food costs. He cites data from 1975 to 1977 showing slower food price growth than overall CPI and notes that restaurant prices rose 25 percent while home meals remain cheaper. He argues profits are modest in food, and eliminating middlemen could lower prices.

Dividing and transplanting peonies for longer bloom
Backyard gardeners should divide overgrown peonies now to ensure strong roots before winter. Lift clumps wash roots separate into at least four-bud eyes plant eyes two inches deep and fertilize per clump. Consider new varieties including herbaceous hybrids and Japanese tree peonies to extend color and bloom earlier in the season.
