I've been growing peaches for more than 20 years. Some years are great and some are total losses. The freeze could have been nature's way of thinning the crop and could have done us a favor. Without a freeze, growers have to go into an orchard and thin out the fruit load on a tree, which drives up the labor cost. Rasberry said he believes the freeze overthinned this year's crop.
Trees can set five to six times the amount of fruit needed.
