Cool Outdoor Stuff: Winter Wheat with Andrew McCown

June 4, 2014 by Andrew McCown

Winter wheat is a powerhouse producer for local Eastern Shore farmers, but the story doesn’t stop there. As Echo Hill Outdoor School’s Andrew McCown points out in the latest edition of Cool Outdoor Stuff, this remarkably resilient crop plays many roles in the life of the Shore and the businesses that depend on it.

This video is approximately three minutes long.

    As a farmer’s daughter, I do appreciate some recognition of the amazing agriculture in Kent County. The farms here are beautiful. We are so blessed to have both the land and water.

    I do hope this is “old fashioned wheat” and not GMO wheat.
