I grew up in the southwestern part of Virginia in the Clinch Mountians. We grew a little corn to feed the old milk cow and couple of hogs. Where we grew corn you could not get a corn binder to stay on the side of the hill. You were lucky to get the land plowed with a team of horses. Corn was planted by hand, cut and shocked by hand, and pulled and shucked by hand. The fodder was fed to the cow along with some ear corn.

We only had two or three acres of corn because we had no large fields to grow it in. It was a lot of work but was a good life. DH
