“This is the worst that Michigan has experienced in the past 50 years at least. I don’t know how far you’d have to go back to find something similar.”

Over on Absolute Michigan we have a report on the cataclysmic losses Michigan fruit farmers are facing in 2012.

This is devastating news for fruit farmers and the industry in general. My heart goes out to all of you. And of course, this is lousy news for consumers. Even if prices go higher I will be happy to support by purchasing all I can afford. God Bless Farmers of America.
