Good morning, sunshine! First Lady Marty Kemp brought sunshine to an otherwise cloudy opening day of the 43rd Sunbelt Agricultural Expo when she joined Georgia Grown Executive Chef Holly Chute Oct. 15 for a Georgia Grown cooking demo. The pair prepared a Kale, Apple, Bacon and Egg White Breakfast Burrito for the early crowd in Moultrie. The dish incorporated Georgia- made foods including Baker Farms Kale, bacon from Carroll’s Sausage, Jaemor Farms apples, Olé tortillas and Bootlikker Hot Sauce. See more photos from opening day of Expo in Moultrie on page 16.

September was apple month, and many schools across the state held “Apple Crunch for Lunch” events where children munched on apples together at noon for “The Crunch Heard Around the State!” October’s spotlight food is zucchini. School cafeterias will offer zucchini as a vegetable choice for student lunches for the month. Cafeterias at some schools will help teachers with taste tests among students to pick out popular dishes prepared with zucchini. Holly Thaw, Farm to School specialist with the Georgia Department of Education, said that kind of in-school collab- oration is another benefit of the program. “It provides an opportunity for the cafeterias to connect with the classrooms. By focusing on a harvest of the month item, they can work with their classroom teachers and share information about the item, about the farm, about where it comes from in Georgia,” Thaw said. Other Harvest of the Month items include sweet potatoes in November, root vegetables like carrots and beets in March and strawberries and blueberries in the spring. Friedman noted that the timing of Harvest of the Month calendar items allows schools to get fresh, locally-grown food year round. “You think of Georgia as peaches and pecans, peanuts and Vidalia onions, and then you really see the amount of other ag products produced in this state,” she said. “We can truly serve one item every single day to every single student that is a Georgia-produced or -grown product.

(Amy Carter/GDA) Grown Baby Barn. No terrible twos for the Georgia Grown Baby Barn Attraction remains a big draw for fairgoers By Jay Jones [email protected]

Dr. Lee Jones can’t quite get used to the standing ovation he receives after helping a heifer deliver a calf inside the Georgia Grown Baby Barn. “As long as I’ve been doing this, no one has ever stood up and applauded when we’ve de- livered a calf,” said Jones, a veterinary medicine professor at the University of Georgia. “The farmer and I, you know, we were happy to get it out alive, and we might have congratulated each other but we’ve never gotten applause for that outcome.” The Baby Barn is in its second year at the fair and remains a major draw for fair goers. Public birthing and nursery exhibits for farm animals are commonplace at state fairs in the Midwest. Georgia Department of Agriculture officials traveled to the Minnesota State Fair to observe the birthing centers there as they started developing Georgia’s Baby Barn. The goal of the Baby Barn is to give the public an opportunity to see live births of cows and see newborn piglets on display. Jones said from the questions he hears at the fair he be- lieves many people are unclear about the care and breeding of cattle and dairy cows. “That is something that is one of those unintended consequences of improving produc- tion,” he said. “If you improve production and efficiency you have fewer people involved in production. The fewer people involved, the fewer people are aware of practices.” Cows do not operate on a fair schedule, so a push notification through the Fair’s smart- phone app is sent out when a cow shows signs of a possible delivery. People gather, and audience participation is part of the Baby Barn experience.
