Fruit Tree Migration And A Final Legislative Wrap On This West Virginia Morning

On this West Virginia Morning, several lawmakers called the just completed legislative session historic, while others were concerned over the focus on major economic development rather than helping working West Virginians. Randy Yohe has a final session wrap from the House of Delegates.

Also, in this show, Georgia is probably best known for its peaches, but now, varieties once found only in southern Georgia are moving northward into Appalachia because of climate change. It’s not just peaches, but all kinds of fruit trees. Jess Mador has this story of fruit tree migration.
