2017 broadleaf

 Broadleaf growers are getting geared up for the new growing season. Wrenches are being turned on tractors the wood stoves are roaring. Yesterday I stopped at my favorite farm in Enfield. Entering the garage/tobacco storage building was refreshing.Seeing our local growers Izac and Steve maintaining the fleet of fifty vintage"red IH tractors". And yes you Deer lovers plenty of green tractors too. I must say growers are very very optimistic on this growing season. Just standing in the football field size building with the raw bailed tobacco aroma was simply Heaven. The tradition love risk and reward can only be appreciated when your boots are in the dirt on site on a farm. This time of year i always get itchy to start growing again !!! Thanks for reading!!!
