Mom and Pop Farming by Holly Ricci-Canham


May 9, 2017

Holly Ricci-Canham will talk about her book "Mom & Pop Farming in Orleans County, NY"   which includes reminisces about simple days with lots of hard work. The farms featured in the book (much like the farms in Greece many years ago) were part of a close-knit community with neighborhood schools and churches.

The book covers farm operations throughout county with sections about muck farmers, dairies, fruit and vegetable farms, canning companies, migrant labor camps, “ladies accounts,” technology changes as well as country schools, “kids play” and fairs and celebrations.
