Detroit apple orchard lights fires to keep cold temperatures away

How the city’s apple orchard is keeping its blossoms alive
Cold temperatures are bad for spring, especially for the flowering fruits that will die without enough heat. That s where the practice of smudging - lighting fires to keep plants warm - is handy.
She s laughing as she says it. King has been up for about 48 hours straight saving her orchard from almost certain demise.
That s because the cold air that swept through Michigan on Wednesday didn t just leave driving conditions worse. It threatened the blossoms that have appeared on the 87 apple trees at Detroit Farm & Cider. And that can be a big problem when cider and apple prospects depend on the success of spring flowering.

For Detroit native Leandra King, tonight could be a turning point.
At 25 degrees, 90% of King’s harvest at her new business, Detroit Farm & Cider, will be gone.
King’s urban farm and cider mill has more than 140 trees. Half of them are apples, and the other half provide different fruits and veggies to the west-side neighborhood.
