Crops are entering the final stages of maturity but wet conditions are holding up harvest for most farmers in the area, Jesse said Sept. 23. “We’ve had more than 6 inches of rain in the last week,” she said. “A couple of neighbors have been out doing beans, but the rest of us are just waiting for it to dry off. The weather has been warm and the wind is blowing, so hopefully that will speed things up.”
