I went on a journey to the farmers market today, I had to stop my a local wood working shop to get a new leaf made for our table which is a family heirloom. The shop was operated be a Amish family. Heading to the shop I came across an Amish farmer planting his field with soybeans. His equipment was a team of 3 horses and an older planter. I was able to have a brief chat with this farmer while he was reloading the planter. The field was 42 acres and it was now the second day planting his crop. I learned a little more about their culture which I have been very interested in since I was a kid.
