Weather Impacts Fruits & Veggies

Beans, cucumbers and corn aren't quite as abundant this year because of the drought. But tomatoes are mature and ready right now. The owner at Red's Market in Rothschild says the climate hasn't hurt the red fruit too much. You'll also find plenty of watermelons and musk melons, since they flourish in heat. And sure types of squash are previously making their debut.

"The heat brought the ripeness on in early August instead of early September. So we're looking at 3 weeks to a month ahead on this crop," says David McGowan, owner of Red's.

But the drought has taken its fee on the size of the acorn squash. Mcgowan says they're typically twice as large.
