The Tennessee Highway Patrol is cautioning parents to never leave a child unattended in a car. With temperatures reaching the 90s this week, THP Col. Tracy Trott said heat can build to intolerable levels inside a vehicle in a few minutes. There were 32 children who died in hot cars last year nationwide. 5 of those deaths occurred in Tennessee. The THP recommends placing a cellphone, purse or other valuable item on the back floorboard in front of a child in a restraint seat. When the driver retrieves the item, the child's presence will be obvious.
Kentucky Farm Accused of Using Pesticides on Organic Products
WBIR Sunday June 16, 2013
An organic farm in Tennessee says it is no longer buying produce from farmers in southern Kentucky who use pesticides on their produce. The owners of Delvin Farms, which is the largest federally certified organic farm in Middle Tennessee, told The Tennessean that they used to purchase a small amount of non-organic produce from a group of Mennonite farmers in Scottsville, Ky. They said the produce was clearly labeled as non-organic when it was sold to customers. Another Middle Tennessee produce vendor filed a formal complaint with the U.S. Department of Agriculture about the practice. The newspaper reports the case highlights the rising demand for produce that is organic and locally grown.
