Harvest Time
This is not our combine or our field. But I just wanted to share what I saw out our front door today.
The neighbors are harvesting soybeans. So now the fields that I walk by will be 'bare' until spring. Last year they planted corn, this year beans, I suppose they will go back to corn next year. It is disturbing though, as I take my morning walks, to see a distinct 'burn line' during the green season, where the weeds meet the crops. I won't go on about how they are harming the land and putting chemicals in the food. That will be for another post.
