Cold delays strawberry harvest in Baldwin County | al.com: "FOLEY, Ala. -- Cold weather delayed but didn't damage Baldwin County's strawberry crop this year, according to producers and agriculture officials. Fruit is beginning to ripen with what appears to be a good yield.

'There were times this winter, I wondered if we'd have strawberries, but the plants came out OK. They're just going to be later,' said Mark Krupinski, whose family operates Krupinski Farms in Foley."
