African American Farming From The Past We Adore

Nothing like taking a lunch break after a long day of farming. Fresh rolls are definitely a must.

It is a special art to balance your harvest on your head. We also adore this beautiful floral pattern.

Picking the fruits of your label is a special past time and even better when done in style.

A day at the market is better with a group of friends.

Nothing like a little father daughter time on the farm.

Even when you are working on the farm, you have to stay stylish. This bow and plaid look is a winner.

Nothing like telling a funny story about chasing your livestock that day.

Nothing like passing the traditions from father to son.

We adore this beautiful farm family posing for a family photo.

This little boy is looking like a professional as he handles the family horse

We adore this couple. They look so happy even after a long day of work.

This color photo is so classic. Nothing like raising your own family chickens.

Such a playful day for this little one playing on the horse and buggy!

This is a serious throwback photo. So many memories

A little music makes the day go by faster

A sun hat is a must on a warm southern day.
A farmer’s market is a great way to connect with your local farmers. So glad this tradition is continuing today.
