“The Family Farm”

July 16, 2008  Author: Western Lady

wstc.jpgThere was an article yesterday on AOL about things in America that are vanishing.  One of the things they listed was the Family Farm.  One of my fondest memories as a child was going to my uncles farm and seeing the metal welcome sign when you go through the gate.  To lose the family farm is not a good thing. 

That is not only very sad but extremely scary ~~ after all we do have to eat and produce straight from the field on a small family farm just can’t be beat!  The huge commercial farms just aren’t the same, probably because they don’t have the connection to the land & the community that the family farmer has.   My image of a farmer is one of admirable intelligence and skill, one with great patience and endurance.  Just like my uncle!
