A Pit Stop Along the Georgia Peaches Pipeline with Dario Chavez

In this episode you’ll learn:
The importance of “chill” in the growth of peach trees and the production of peaches
How climate variation can be mitigated to allow for consistent peach production
The two main components of peach tree health and production
