Description
A hay tedder and seated rolling piece of farm equipment sit on the side of the road in autumn. The fall colors blaze in the bright morning sunshine. The rusted machines sit there day by day giving those who pass by a momentary glance into the past. Most drive by on their way to Boston or other job location but maybe someone will stop here if only for a moment and look over at the devices that once tilled the land to bring farm products to our tables. Most of us are far removed from our agrarian society (or agricultural society) beginnings. Only a small percentage of our economy is based on producing and maintaining crops and farmland. But this is possibly the most important aspect of our civilization since so few of us actually know how to work the land.
