Our current location is very near Clemson University in South Carolina. Some of the agricultural sites run by the university are tracts of land bordering the campground. Right near our campsite are some peach trees. These are experimental orchards. We’ve stayed at this particular campground several times over the summer and I pass by these orchards every day and never gave them much thought until recently when I was trying to think of new things to blog about. I am not sure what all the university tests with the experiments with at these locations, perhaps growing techniques, pest control, fruit production, who knows, but it is interesting to drive by and see the orchards.
