Horned Grebe at the Celery Farm
My first ever here. And the spring arrivals are arriving! The grebe was No. 186 on my Celery Farm life…
All the recent snow reminded me of this video — A fond look back at the Celery Farm Natural Area when it consisted of working farms, plus some sweet childhood memories.
It features Patricia Cooper reading her poem "Layers of Memories," about the old days of the celery farms in Allendale.
The video includes nifty archival images and music by the Hunger Mountain Boys.
Ah! That was so sweet! It makes me want to take a visit to the farm! Perhaps I will, when it gets warmer!
A classic of folk history–and a beautiful production! Thanks for reposting.
