After the last Christmas tree is sold, the Amherst Pelham Boy Scouts always clean up after themselves at Kendrick Park. The same cannot be said for the out-of-town wheat growers. Well, at least we didn’t finance them with CPA funds.
Looked better back in June

weed not wheat
Yeah, I guess that would be one way out of the budget crunch.
And they have a lot of fertile land out there at Cherry Hill
Not everyine in Amherst smokes weed.
Until later..................
I hope this doesn't mean we will have a wheat shortgage.
Well if these folks tended to the other plots they planted around the Valley this spring with such fanfare they way they took care of this one, that may be the case.
What was this supposed to symbolize again? World peace? Saving the planet? Better nutrition? All these well-meaning pointless symbolic gestures kind of blur together after a while.
These bakers (and obviously bakers have a vested interest in wheat) from our Sister Republic, Northampton, wanted to demonstrate that wheat is a viable crop for farmers in New England to raise (thus reducing transportation costs from the mid-west, thus saving the planet).
Of course New England farmers are well known for Yankee sensibility, so.....
Maybe they can turn it into a compost pile now. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to find manure!
