A big ole' thanks from all of us at the farm for coming out and visiting with us last week at the Snellville Farmers Market. It was a bit hot toward the end of the market, and we were all so discombobulated in our final prep and loading efforts to get to the market that we left the fans behind. Not gonna happen again.

The activities on the farm this week have left us hot and sweating, but we are bringing our best and fresh farm products to the market again this Saturday. Mix in some rain showers with our impression of a Creek Indian rain dance and it worked like it was drawn on the blackboard. Oh yeah, we just started pickin our blackberries this week and hope to have our romaine back at the market as well.

We did share two stories this week about life in the wiregrass country of South Georgia. Looking back, those youthful days of carefree shenanigans as a up and growing young man were certainly picturesque and full of life's lessons. In particular there is a tale about my dad who was a great inspiration and did his best to keep his brood focused and as he would say - you got to keep your nose to the grindstone to be successful. Took me a while to understand that one, as the first impression was it sounded painful.

For those who visit the Snellville Farmers Market, we will be at the market this coming Saturday June 6th, the market will be on the green in front of city hall from 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM.

As basic information, our produce that is brought to the market is picked on Thursday and Friday of each week, kept fresh and cool, and brought to the markets for the weekend.

If you are unable to attend the market and wish to place an order, you can either email your order [email protected]; or text your order to - phone: 678-481-9246. Once the order is placed, we will contact you to provide directions to the farm and to arrange a day and time over the weekend that works for you to pick up your order.

Payment for orders can be made in the form of Zelle, Square (debit or credit - contactless and chip), Cash App, check and cash.
So, come on down to the market, visit, and stay awhile. We may even entertain with a joke or two or tell a wild story from the follies of youth.

Here is the 2nd story.......

Since this is fathers’ day weekend, I thought I would share a story that my father’s brothers and sisters shared with me. My father has since passed away several years ago, and I miss him every day. I suspect my dad had a bit of a mischievous streak in his past, but he never let on to much of those past misadventures. However, my Grandmother Cowart did share a few of those stories as she had 11 children to tend to and often claimed that my dad was a “hand-full”.

So, the story goes like this:

My grandparents owned and farmed land in Telfair County near the Coffee County line in South Georgia. In the year and early summer of 1941, one of my dad’s brothers was discharged from the Navy where he served as a Chief aboard a destroyer in the Pacific. He returned home and helped my Grandfather Cowart on the farm with the rest of the brothers and sisters. It was said that he had no regard at all for farming and wanted to pursue other less strenuous and better paying opportunities.

As was told, it turned off unbelievably hot that early summer and my Grandfather Cowart asked my uncle to run the deep busting plow in the field so he could plant some late/early fall sweet corn. So, my Uncle took my dad along to help him, but I suspect it was so he could keep an eye on him. Since my Uncle had been away in the Navy and little did he know my dad had picked up some mischievous ways. Back then, tractors were hard to come by, so he had to use the mule and bottom plow which further irritated his mindset and disposition.

By the way, to digress, I tried plowing with a mule harnessed up to a double shovel plow once. The result was less than stellar, and after about plowing a quarter of an acre I dragged up and told my Grandfather Medders that a tractor and spring-tooth plow was needed. I think the mule was confused as well as my direction of “Gee” and “Haw” was backward on most of the given directions much to the amusement of my grandfather.

Plowing with the mule using a bottom plow was extremely hard work, and right after lunch, the heat of the day was hotter than Satan’s Breath on July 4th in South Georgia with no breeze. My Uncle was flat out tired of plowing, tired of the mule and was mad at having to do this type of work. It was then that his first mistake was made. For whatever reason other than being miserably hot, my uncle decided to take all his clothes off, except for keeping his socks and brogans on. My uncle had figured it would be cooler, and it was near time for my dad to take over the plow and finish the field. He also figured he could go and sit in the creek to cool off while my dad finished plowing the field. Of course, his figuring was about to take a turn for the worse as I can see my dad’s mischievous mind working in overtime, watching the festivities unfold while planning his next moves.

At some point when my uncle had about plowed over his half of the field and before it was time for my dad to take the plow and finish the field, my dad screamed out – “Here come Miss June and her mother walking up the lane!”, which was right next to the field where my uncle was plowing. Well, my Uncle had been seeing Miss June pretty regular, and by now, all the figuring that had been a-gonin’ on was in the outhouse and full panic had set in. Being an astute Navy Man he assessed his circumstances - he was standing buck-naked in the field in clear site of the lane where they were walking. If Miss June and her mother feasted their eyes on Mr. Buck Naked, Miss June’s Mother would put a swift end to any further courtin’ with Miss June.

So the new plan was - my uncle quickly tied the rein to the fully set and loaded plow in the field, and set out runnin’ to get his clothes. In the meantime, my dad had hidden his clothes, but before my uncle could get to them, the mule spooked and started runnin’ in the other direction pulling a heavy bouncing plow across the field. My Uncle had to stop in his tracks, reversed course, and set out runnin’ after the mule, and that was no small chore as the mule would run a bit and then stop to catch her breath. With my Uncle screamin’ and runnin completely naked, the mule would take off runnin again right before my Uncle would get close to the mule. This spectacle continued for quite a while with my dad thoroughly enjoying the entertainment and laughing so hard that he was cryin'. He admitted that the entertainment was better than the Red Skelton TV show, and he laughed so hard that he fell off the log where he was sitting. Of course, Miss June and her mother were nowhere in sight, which was the joke that my dad set in motion which was to watch his brother who was already hot and bothered run across the field buck naked to get his clothes. The fact that the mule pulled the plow up and was runnin across the field leading his naked brother on the chase was a pure unexpected bonus.

When my Uncle finally caught up with the mule, the mule just laid down in the field. My uncle unhitched the plow, got the mule up and was able to get the animal moved to the shade of a monster oak a-growin’ along the hedgerow. At that point, my Uncle realized that he had been "had" by my dad. There was no Miss June or her mother anywhere near the field, and his clothes had inadvertently been removed by my dad.

At that point, my dad decided to reposition my Uncle’s clothes that he had misappropriated at a distance from where my Uncle has set down a-restin’. It was then that my dad decided to retreat back to their farmhouse. The story as told gets a bit sparse at this point other than to imagine that my Uncle had a plethora of choice words screamed at my dad.

My Grandmother Cowart did fill in a bit of the end of the story. She told me that my dad, when asked about the whereabouts of his brother, told her that my Uncle had worked the mule so hard that the mule collapsed and died. She said that my dad said he high-tailed back to the house and did not want any part of killing the mule. My Grandmother said she sent one of my Aunts to go to the field and find out what was a-going on. At that point the story was cut short, and no one would say what happened from all the shenanigans that occurred, or what punishment my dad received other than to say that my Grandmother Cowart delivered the sentence to my dad’s disposition well.

As a passing sentiment, when my Grandmother Cowart came to visit, stay, and look after us a few times when we were young chillins’ as she called us, she delivered as well when we got out of line…..and, of course, we had to go to the hedges and cut our own switch as part of the sentence delivery.

Thinking back on those times, my Grandmother Cowart often referred to my dad as being a “young rascal” that needed careful watching with a tree full of owls. She often stated that in my case, the nut did not fall far from the tree…….. From all my shenanigans growing up in South Georgia, and having many of the same genes, I just naturally had to live up to the reputation.

So here is my tribute and salute to my Grandmother Cowart and my dad on fathers day. Both helped me get over Fools Hill……well mostly, gave me common sense, contributed greatly to my education, and kept me moving forward and on the road between the ditches to achieve future successes.

I miss them both!

It's story time again. Since I have been holding back there are 2 stories for this week, one a summer vacation trip and the other is for my father since this weekend is Fathers Day.

Here is the first misadventure.........

Back when I was a comin’ along in the woods of South Georgia, there were not many places to socialize in the hot and humid summers. Once school was turned out we had 3 solid months before the next school year started. Outside of the daily routine of working on the farm except for Sundays (for the most part), one could slip away and go fishing or swimming in the creek (when it was deep enough), the local ponds, or the Ocmulgee River. The problem with the creeks, ponds, and even the river is one had to watch for a whole host of varmints that would bite ya’, sting ya’, or stab ya’. There were all sorts of poisonous and non-poisonous snakes - water moccasins, big red wasps, yellow hornets, black widow spiders, coral snakes, alligator snapping turtles, alligator gar fish, bull sharks swimmin’ up the river (OH YEAH! Saw one break the water at the Lumber City Bridge – State Route 23 – which is 63 miles from Darien on the Georgia Coast), and alligators. Yes, an alligator will size you up and bite ya’. So, where I grew up a fella had to be reeeaaaaal careful.

A few special short trips were made in the summer. A long summer vacation more than 2-3 days was an unknown for our family as demand for produce and meat was prime during the summer. On one of those “vacations”, a few of us went to the beach at Jekyll Island, Georgia. I remember the first time I ever saw a giant concrete swimming pool was the summer of 1967 at the Aquarama on Jekyll Island. The Aquirama was billed as an Olympic Size Swimming Pool with two diving board platforms with one that looked as tall as one of the North Georgia Mountains. The cost for entrance a $1.00 each, which was high priced swimming in 1967. When we paid our fees and got into the pool area, it was the biggest, widest, clearest, and bluest water I had ever seen, other than looking at pictures in the World Book Encyclopedia at various beaches and clear water that made you wish that you were at that beach. Never in all my borne days had I been in any water where I could look down and clearly see my feet and toes.

Once we were into the pool area, I took one look at the diving platform and was all in. However, I distinctly remember my mother pointing her finger at me and my cousin and stating –“don’t even think about it”! Well, I could not speak for my cousin’s state of mind, but that was as gooda dare as wearing your best Sunday-go-to Meeting starched blue shirt and parading back and forth in the face of a Brahma Bull. Yes, Brahma bulls and some other cattle, are colored blind to red but can perceive a color like blue. And when it is paraded or waved in their face it just surely irritates the Hades out of them. But, once again the call from the diving platform to come hither was way too big to overcome my mother’s command or overcome the common sense level that was needed to overcome that come hither. Once again, I found myself at the bottom of Fools Hill, which was where I seemed to stay.

My cousin and I could swim like dolphins and my mother and aunt decided we were old enough to follow their directions, so they departed and went to the beach. That was when the fun began and caution was cast to the wind. Me and my cousin climbed those diving platforms like we were climbing the monkey bars on the school playground. We took the necessary steps like diving from the lowest diving board a few go-rounds (about 6 foot high), and then we took on the 10 or 12 foot high diving board. Before long we were doing flips, cannon balls, can-openers, swan dives ala Elvis in the Acapulco movie, fool dives, etc. Having the time of our lives until my cousin hit his head on the side of the diving board and boy did it bleed. So much, the whole dang pool was shut down which led to the displeasure of everyone swimming in the pool. I dived in and fished him out. When I got him to the ladder of the pool and he climbed out, he said he was all right, pushed me away and uttered a few choice words. By that time, 2 of the lifeguards who saw blood in the water and a third lifeguard had all come a runnin’. My cousin was more-mad at the 3 lifeguards not allowing him to continue with the swimming and monkey-business on the diving boards. My first thoughts were…… it is perfectly acceptable with us to put some band-aids on the gash so we could go back in a swimmin’. That’s what band-aids are for, -right?

I remember telling the lifeguards that he was hard-headed and was ok. But my credibility was totally in the dumpster when I saw the gash on the side of his head along with the blood. Shoot, I had killed and dressed hogs, cows, chickens, quail, doves, and even a racoon once, and never had an issue with the sight and presence of blood. But, oh boy, my cousin was a bleedin’ like a stuck hog and before the lifeguards had enough compression applied to stop the bleedin’, even I was weak in the knees at what I saw. The lifeguards tasked me with going to get my mother and aunt in andele, andale, and arriba fashion. At that point getting away from all that blood was a blessin’. Then came the hard part…….

I ran down to the beach to tell my mother what happened, including having to own-up to my failure to follow directions since I was the oldest. But when I got down to where they had set-up on the beach, all I could say was my cousin was injured and they were needed. I had to fill in the details much to my chagrin on the way back to the Aquarama. I figured that I would get the wrath of Khan at some point in the process, but I preferred to delay the inevitable.

In any event, when my aunt and mother arrived, I was given the “look”, ala boy - are you in trouble. I was told not to say a word. It did not take a rock to fall out of the sky and hit me on head to know the end result was not going be positive for me.

Well, we ended up at the emergency room again, and my cousin had 12 stitches. The doctor stated he could not go back in a-swimmin anywhere for 2 weeks. Plus, he received a tetanus shot and an antibiotic shot in his left and right buttocks. My cousin blamed me for that, saying that hurt worse than not being allowed to swim for 2 weeks.

When we got back home was when I lost swimmin’ privileges anywhere for the next 3 weeks (almost a 3rd of the summer vacation). Plus I have to give my aunt 2 weeks of my hard-earned money to help pay the doctor bill. I quickly determined that being the oldest had definite drawbacks. After all, my uncle said my cousin was blessed with the hardest head around. This was proved later- on that summer, as my cousin managed to get hit in the head with a shovel and had no ill-effects. Man-oh-man I got robbed on our little misadventure at the Aquarama on Jekyll Island.

Anyhow, it was not for long thereafter that both diving boards and platforms were removed completely from the Aquarama. The Cowart brood had struck again - that is what my Aunt claimed. For the next month of Sundays, I kept a pretty low profile halfway expecting a group of excited, mad and crazy people coming to seek me out.

In any event, you can make up your own mind……….

We appreciate everyone who came out in the rain to the market this past Saturday. From the forecast for this Saturday, the weather models are again showing that more rain may be coming again. Maybe mother nature will hold off during the upcoming market. We need the rain but perhaps not all at once........

For those who read of my misadventures, I was able to finish the sandbar and river story mentioned in last week's post. It was another excursion into a youthful past in South Georgia farm life. Maybe I will render my bronco busting experience in the next few weeks.

For those who visit the Snellville Farmers Market, we will be at the market this coming Saturday May 23rd from 9:00 AM to 12:00 Noon BEHIND - Snellville City Hall. From now on the market is a weekly event every Saturday going forward through the end of September.
