The book is a historic fiction about the area I now call home. Shortly after receiving the book, I had the opportunity to see this area firsthand. I loved seeing the real life history I had only ever read about. During that trip I saw this….
It’s use was explained to me. But recently I was able to see just how this tobacco press was used to make bailed tobacco. So much labor and ingenuity.
Today I drove past a field of tobacco. There were farm workers spiking the leaves. I also saw a tobacco barn filled to the rafters with drying tobacco leaves.
I love where I live! ♥️
