Tough season forces N.J. Peach Festival to be canceled
Peach ice cream – fresh-dipped and fabulous – will be featured at the 2016 Gloucester County 4-H Fair this year. But there won’t be a Peach Bake-Off, or a Little Miss Peach competition. And a 2016 Peach Queen will not be crowned, either… This spring’s weather hit local growers hard. An unusually warm spell in late March – which encouraged early varieties of peaches to blossom – was followed by a deep freeze the night of April 4 and into the morning of April 5. “The temperatures ranged from 17 to 25 degrees,” notes Hemant Gohil, agricultural agent at the Rutgers Cooperative Extension of Gloucester County.
