McBride AGRICULTURE.The blueberry season is turning out to be a difficult one this year in the Chateauguay Valley, with most producers from the region experiencing an average drop of 50% in their production.This problem is the result of a period of intense freezing this past winter, in January and February.Due to a lack of snow, the cold attacked the plants.In certain cases, the buds froze, and in other situations, the roots were affected, ruining the plant.This situation affected the highbush blueberries cultivated in the region, as well as the wild blueberry crop.Laurent Lussier, the president of the Haut-Saint-Laurent Valley Association of Highbush Blueberries, said that the problem is even more prevalent in the region of Rigaud and Covey Hill, where two blueberry producers lost about 90% of their harvest.The owner of a blueberry grove on rang Savary in Saint-Antoine-Abbe, Lussier himself lost approximately 50% of his crop.He owns about 5,000 blueberry plants.«it's a year to forget and we hope that next winter will be milder» Lussier laments.Considering these losses, it is easy to understand why the price of blueberries has increased in many places.«The prices have risen because of the rarity of the fruit.It's too bad, but we have to adjust according to what's available, » maintains Lussier.SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH OTHER PRODUCERS Elsewhere in the Valley, the blueberry grove operated by Benoit and Mario Faille on Route 202 in Franklin also sustained damage from last winter\u2019s freeze.In a telephone interview, Mario Faille claimed that he had lost at least 40% of his highbush blueberry harvest from a total of 4,000 plants.«The cold wave did not help us and the buds were attacked, » he said.« However, the blueberries that resisted are very good and we are currently in Jae the busy period of picking them, » adding that the prices of blueberry crates are on the rise this summer, but that public picking is still an option.It\u2019s the same story in Soulanges where Francois Cuerrier and Catherine Vandersmissen own the St.Thomas blueberry grove in St.Zotique on 69th Avenue.Cuerrier confided that he had lost half of his annual harvest of A ta.[Ts itive Lie) PARENTS Vaio (Late : À qu ge 3 blueberries due to the intense cold, even though the plants had been protected by a wooded area.«This is our fifth harvesting period and it\u2019s our worst year ever, » lamented Cuerrier, who owns 4,000 plants.Despite the difficult season, Cuerrier has maintained the same prices as those he advertised last year (For example, it costs $35 for a crate of blueberries.).he Gleaner HELPING YOUR BUSINESS SUCCEED FOR over 150 years 187th Huntingdon Fair this week-end Art Festival at Groove Hall PAGE 4 Tél.: 450 829-2662 info@fratte.com Clubycy F.R TT E

bakery and the Christmas store for granted.Instead of picking up a blackberry-zucchini muffin at the local coffee shop, I'd beg my parents to take me to Tim Hortons for an iced cappuccino.Which in my mind, was no issue\u2014those cold beverages were fantastic.So | grew up, moved away, and drank iced coffees galore in the big bad city.[didn't return home for about three years, due to schooling, work and social obligations.My parents came into the city to visit, and | rarely asked about the town that had provided me with such an illustrious childhood (one of the traits of being a teenager, | suppose).That was until returned home and saw \u201cFor Rent\u201dsigns in every fourth or fifth window.It was heartbreaking, and the small Victorian town held only a shadow of the charm that had surrounded my early years.The tourists that that enriched the town were still perusing about (albeit in smaller numbers), but the shops were different, save for a few.| didn't recognize a single person.Had everybody moved Mart was, located just thirty minutes away.And how convenient the Canadian Tire was, (located to the left of the Wal-Mart).Now, don\u2019t get me wrong.All personal issues aside, Wal-Mart is great when you're desperate for a beach towel, or your coffee machine breaks and you may possibly very well have a heart attack if you don't get a new one before the next morning.But there's the problem\u2014we take convenience over most things, which often includes overlooking local sources for our everyday needs\u2014some- thing that is essential to the continued growth of a small town.That being said, we don't all have the budget to have the freedom to negotiate between what's on sale, and what will keep our town moving in a forward direction.This is understandable, but it is still important to try to source what is within budget locally\u2014many of our shop owners work very hard to offer fair and more than reasonable prices.So instead of picking up your cat food at the local box store, see if there's an option closer to home.You may pay a few extra dollars {or not), but at least you can see where (and to who) your money is going to\u2014the continued growth and beauty of the place we all call home.HUNTINGDN ENDED LAST NIGHT ACTUALITES Michael Leahy is the honorary president of the Moisson Sud-Ouest golf tournament slated for August
