Peach Output in Timberville Area Falls Short
In Timberville the peach crop will be about 20 percent of normal with an expected value around $50,000. George H. Crist, noted Rockingham orchardist, says last year yielded 31 carloads and peak years neared 200, while this season’s early varieties have begun picking despite poor yields. The main crop, including Georgia Belles and Albertas, should be picked around August 10, with prices likely showing a premium for Timberville fruit due to size and flavor. Freezes in winter and spring blamed for the reduced yield.
