Photos: Farmers Work To Harvest Peanuts Before Rain

October 11, 2023

Local farmers worked Monday and Tuesday to harvest peanuts that were dug and on top of the ground before anticipated rainfall Wednesday.

An area of low pressure will move along a frontal boundary in the northern Gulf of Mexico, bringing perhaps several inches of much needed rainfall through Friday.

    When I visit Pensacola in the fall ,I buy fresh peanuts and smoke them in my brothers smoker. OOOOOOO, so good. I also go to Atmore and get fresh pecans.
