#Vermont #orchards and #vineyards devastated by late-May #freeze: 'So powerless to protect it'

It was just one night when the temperatures across Vermont lingered in the 20s for several hours, but the flash freeze has resulted in devastating and unprecedented impacts on the state's orchards and vineyards.

by Dan D'Ambrosio, Burlington Free Press, May 25, 2023

"'The hard freeze will mean significant losses for our growers and those who make their living off fruits and vegetables. The extent of the damage may not be known for several weeks but early indications are discouraging.'"

Dang! It's 23 here (F) #DeepSouth Very unusual, with #HardFreeze through Sunday. Got the water dripping, hope will be ok. Have had freezes before, but not for 3 days straight! ❄🌬

Got all my drippity drips happening on all my outdoor tapppity taps. #hardfreeze -#deepsouth #nola

Well, we're supposed to get #HardFreeze starting Thurs night. I know, much of the country will have frigid stuff, but it's unusual for my area. We actually have exposed pipes, we wrap, we "let the water run." Went out and picked my little crop of green tomatoes and baby jalapenos. Those plants and everything else will die. I'll take my collection of potted cactus inside. Hope everybody will stay safe and ok. ❄🌬❄🌬💕

not even gonna BOTHER trying to cover our outdoor #plants this Thursday when our temperature drops sixty degrees in 24 hours, and the next day doesn’t get above the freezing mark. #HardFreeze #Texas

Last call; hard freeze tonight.

This was not a particularly easy nor a highly successful gardening season here at our house (though our local CSA seems to have done just fine).

What this season was: long. Very, very long.
