Peach harvest underway, but harvesting your own could land you in jail web posted May 27, 2009 JOHNSTON – The peaches are ready and the harvest is coming along nicely, but as you drive down the road you might want to think twice about pulling over into one of the peach fields that are found across the county and picking a few of the tasty treats on your way home. You could end up in jail. Just ask a 24-year-old Hephzibah man who pulled into a peach field on Woodyard Road on Saturday morning and began picking a few peaches. An employee of the farmer spotted the man and called the Edgefield County Sheriff’s Office and a deputy arrived a short time later. The man was found to have a bag of peaches in the back of his car and admitted to picking the peaches. He even tried to pay for the peaches but the farmer, who arrived a short time later, refused to accept the payment and just wanted the peaches back. The deputy returned the peaches and informed the Georgia man that the farmer was not going to press charges although there was enough evidence to make an arrest for petit larceny. Instead the farmer asked the deputy that the man be placed on trespass notice and allowed to go on his way. The deputy complied. © Copyright 2009
