I wonder how many others did this as a child. I guess we didn't think about snakes and spiders. We "kids" would make sure one or two of them were tied high enough that we could go into the bottom of the shock and open it up like a tee-pee and play inside. This was a drying process and sometimes left in the field like this until the animals needed it. It was gathered up in bunches, and stacked straight up, spread out at the bottom and tied at the top with bailing twine. I remember a mule which was sometimes used for plowing the garden.Īfter the corn was cut, we stood it up in shocks. Sometimes we only had one cow which was our milk source. They were left as winter food for the cows and horses or mules when we had them. Explore Truus Laemerss board 'john deere' on Pinterest.

The confetti does follow a pattern like a tire would though, so pretty fun to stitch. This pattern does have some confetti on it’s tires, but is a pretty basic pattern. Here is a tractor pattern that I made for a charity stitching project. After all the corn was gathered, cooked and canned, there would be some ears of corn left on the stalk but they were left behind because the kernels were starting to dry out and not good for eating, for humans, that is.

There were no nearby highways, so you could actually hear the birds singing. This takes me back to the days when I was very young, with gardens, fields of corn, and pastures.
