While the Northern states are seeing their neighborhoods blanketed in white from the first snow, in South Alabama we are blessed with the beauty of snow-white cotton bolls covering acres of land. It is not uncommon to see tourists pull over, jump out of their cars, and begin feverishly taking pictures of the beautiful white fields.Most people are aware that cotton is used in fabrics but are not aware that it is also used in film, writing paper, and U.S. currency. The oil from cotton seed is used in cosmetics, cooking, and soap. Cotton in Alabama is planted in the spring with the cotton bolls opening during the fall, and then it is harvested before Christmas.
