Nope. Most wheat in the U.S. is winter wheat. It gets planted in the fall, and harvested around now.

My memory is of the harvest in Montana, North Dakota and Minnesota, where winter wheat is sown in September and October and harvested in August and September, so I guess Miss Issippi could indeed harvest earlier, now that I lose my inculcated prejudice of the event.

BTW, the first hit on Dogpile search for 'wheat harvest' says the Kansas harvest has just begun.
