Some Call Him the Gambler

We all have friends that enjoy going to the riverboat casinos to see if lady luck is on our side. I have to admit; I've even done it a few times and actually got lucky. Gambling is fun and exciting right? Well, it's not as much fun when you're livelihood or annual salary is a gamble everyday that you go to work. Farmer’s are big risk takers everyday and this year, Florida’s produce farmers unfortunately lost their gamble because of a long cold snap. Not only does it stink for them but also for consumers since the crop failure will force our prices up. Attached is a link to the story about Florida’s cold snap.
On a positive note, tomato seeds have been planted and we’re looking forward to growing them into hearty, tasty Missouri tomatoes for everyone to enjoy this summer!
