Growing Rice in North Carolina

Did you ever think you would hear about North Carolina farmers growing rice? Well, they're doing it! You may recall reading about the Crop Mob helping Jason and Haruka Oatis of Edible Earthscapes in Moncure, N.C., with rice paddy construction earlier this year. Well, now they've harvested their rice and had their first sale at their farm this past Saturday.

Chatham County Extension Agent Debbie Roos created a web page chronicling the process throughout the year, including the sale last week. Take the journey with them through this photo album!
