Page 10-A | Around The Farms I A group of farmers and Extension workers from southeastern Virginia visited Chowan County vegetable farmers last week. Bob Guerber, ex tension chairman in Isle of Wright County, headed the group. Guerber said, “I knew farmers grew vegetables around Edenton, but I didn’t know you grew such a large acreage and so many different vegetables crops.” First we visited David Bateman and saw his modern sweet potato facilities. A specialist among the visitors com mented, “Bateman’s equipment is just like N.C. State College recommends. You can’t beat that!” Next we visited Winbome Brothers Farm and watermelon variety test. Oasis variety caught the attention of the touring group. At the Alvin Evans Farm we saw a new corn picker and hydro cooler. Evans also showed how he crated cantaloupes for selling on the Baltimore market. The corn variety test on Carroll Bass Farm was observed. There are ten white varieties in the test. Currently we are har vesting this test, and Platinum Lady is one of the new varieties showing promise. Sherlon Layton gave the history of Chowan Cooperative Produce Exchange and details of the operation. Layton’s advise was, “Don’t grow vegetables if you don’t know how you are going to sell them.” Diamond Shamrock sponsored lunch and Toni Smith talked about using fungicides successfully. After lunch we visited Miles Dunlowe and his strawberry patch. Dunlowe and Bill Jester talked about growing amd marketing strawberries Colonial Cirimnep &toeep HOT WEATHER IS HERE!!
