Interesting photo of the ice on the plants. While I know this is how they do it, I'd never actually seen it done. TFS!

interesting shot, sure hope the cold moves on I like strawberries

Wow, it is hard being a farmer of any kind, I have heard about spraying crop to protect them with ice but I can't get my head around how it works. I just hope they save the strawberries we love them!!

Seems to be a contradiction, doesn't it? Freeze the berries so they don't spoil... 8} Cool shot, though - TFS!

I did not know this, but I'm all for anything that keeps strawberries affordable!

I never knew what made a strawberry sweeter! I thought that was really interesting!! Great shot!

January 22, 2009

Wow, that's interesting, never knew they did that, thanks for sharing.

Ohhhh...love the photo, but I really hope there wasn't much damage at all...I LOOOOVE strawberries!!! (And I hope for the farmers' sake that there wasn't damage.)

January 22, 2009

they ice the plants to prevent damage? Very interesting to know. I hope strawberries are a good price this year - I'm almost out of jam. :)

I have been watching this on the news for a couple of days now..i love picking fresh strawberries in june here in CT each summer

We have the same problem here with the tomatoes and oranges. We had ice all over this morning also

January 22, 2009

Interesting about the ice!

January 22, 2009

They do that here, too... mine get sprayed every day (and I ony have one little patch of them) - can't WAIT for berries!

My friend, who is a snow bird...goes down from Nov to April was telling me about the strawberries!

January 22, 2009

That is interesting. It makes a very pretty shot.

January 22, 2009

Interesting that they would want ice on them. Now I'm wondering what the difference between frost & ice is? They know their strawberries....I don't. Mine died out years ago. I wasn't a very good strawberry farmer in my little garden, lol! =}
