I live on the border of two Sunny us States, Florida and Alabama. Today we will go shopping at the farmer's market which is located in the city of LOXLEY. MY HUSBAND AND I LOVE WATERMELONS AND HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR A PLACE WHERE YOU CAN BUY DELICIOUS AND SWEET WATERMELON, WITHOUT DYES AND CHEMICALS. THE MARKET WE LOVED IT BECAUSE ALL THE FRUITS AND ESPECIALLY THE WATERMELON WAS SWEET, JUICY, FRESH AND VERY USEFUL.

Farmers Bounce Back from Flooded Farms
BALDWIN COUNTY, Ala.(WPMI) - Farmers are pretty good about watching the rain. Turns out the damage isn't as wide spread as most thought it would be.
Those who were hurt after last weeks record flood say they will bounce back, but until they do you may have to wait or pay a little more for your favorites at the market. Loxley farmer Louis Lazarri lost close to 15% of his early summer corn crop. It should have been ready by Memorial Day or by the Fourth of July. Only on this one end yes all the flat is good, said Lazarri.
He's had to replant the corn. Lazarri says he'll get some to market but the rest will have to come in late. In any business there's going to be a problem sooner or later and this is just part of it you know, said Lazarri.
Federal money is now available for farmers who experienced loses. Government officials who toured the county by air last week feared the worst. A lot of places where people were beginning to plant or have planted, said Congressman Bradley Byrne who toured the county from the air last week.
The erosion and the fresh planted stuff sometimes it rots the seed, said Larry Lazarri who works with his father at the Loxley farm. Luckily farmers say the sun is on their side.
Farmers like Tim Mullick in Summerdale say he's fortunate he waited until after the flood to plant his peanut crop. Some places where the water came through the culvert we have a small amount that we were able to patch up pretty easily, said Mullick.
Turns out produce farmers will be hurt the most. Farmers that grow produce especially sweet potatoes their land was worked up and bedded and that land was soft and when those rains came the water started cutting and it cut some pretty big groves, said Mullick.
The good news is that after re-planting a lot of produce will be back. There just won't be as much early in the season, so prices will go up temporarily. It does affect them on a short term basis not so much on a long term basis, said Rick Stewart Co-Owner of Burris Farm Market in Loxley. Local crops affected are corn, melons, strawberries, sweet potatoes and snap beans.
ALDOT to Open Beach Express Exchange
BALDWIN COUNTY, Ala. (WPMI) Local drivers, commuters and tourists have been waiting for the Interstate 10 interchange at the Baldwin Beach Express to open. It's the missing link for a fast track to area beaches.
There have been several opening target dates but this time there's been a lot of progress and good weather. The folks at the Alabama Departmene of Transportation are confident August is their month and so are hundreds of drivers.
Locals are already used to driving it from Loxley to Gulf Shores. Daniel Dalton says it makes huge difference.
So you go down 59 and it takes 15 to 20 minutes you go down this way and it's eight minutes so its a lot faster and local are going to love it, said Dalton.
ALDOT sent a tweet Friday, I-10 interchange to open in two weeks.
Signs indicating a way to the interstate are still wrapped in plastic. The first opening date was supposed to be this week but work crews had to be diverted to mobile to repair a span leading up to the General Wilson bridge after a fiery accident back in May.
Meantime one local businesses along Alabama 59, Burris Farm Market that depends on tourist traffic is already making plans to expand by opening a new store on the expressway in Foley.
The nice thing about Foley is you not only get seasonal visitors you get year round business in Foley, said farm market owner Rick Stewart.
Other businesses on 59 say local customers will no longer have to fight the tourist traffic to do their shopping and new businesses like this Walmart in Robertsdale will also cater to the locals despite the expressway opening all the way.
Locals say their daily commute will improve too.
I work at Austal and I live in Robertsdale so this is going to reroute me to an easier passage to the interstate rather than the start and stop red lights and the police traffic, said Yehuda Silverwolf who commutes from Robertsdale to Mobile.
Completion of the interstate exchange will depend on weather conditions of course. The target date is for August, just in time to wrap up the summer traffic season by labor day.
Beach Express Project Nearing Completion
ROBERTSDALE, Ala. (WPMI) A seven mile portion, the largest stretch on the Baldwin Beach Express, is set to open this week. When it's all done, it will ease traffic along Alabama 59 and serve as a hurricane evacuation route.
Tuesday crews were striping the highway and cutting the grass.
This is a seven mile project. A two mile project was already completed, and then just north of here about a four mile section was completed so this was a big section in the middle where all the bridges were, said County Highway Director Cal Markert.
Beginning Thursday the Baldwin Beach Express will take you from County Road 64 South to the Foley Beach Expressway.
You know whatever gets people to the beaches quicker and allows more people to come this way, I'm all for it, said Danny Spyvey who lives in Baldwin County.
The only portion not completed yet is the Interstate10 interchange just east of Loxley. Workers were laying asphalt Tuesday. Weather permitting, the last portion will be completed in four to six weeks.
The Burris Farm Market on Highway 59 plans to open a second store on the express next year near Foley.
Foley is going to happen. Foley is a big time change that's going on down there. The nice thing about Foley is that you not only get the seasonal business but you get year round business in Foley, said Rick Stewart, owner of the market.
New highways and progress go hand in hand, and Foley will benefit with the upcoming Blue Collar Country theme park and its future Sportsplex and Event Center.
Markert said he gives credit to county road crews and to ALDOT.
The night division, the commissioners, the governor's office. To do it this fast it had to be good team work and that's what we had, said Markert.
Markert said he plans to move the barricades, opening the Highway 90 portion of the express sometime Thursday morning.
