A big handshake 🤝 to all farmers but tobacco farmers hold a special place in my heart and mind.
Thank you God, thank you Burley, thank you Cornell & Diehl. Nothing better than their numbered flakes for my pipe.
Thumbnail caught my attention. They were setting, lol. Im such a country grrl! That was me at 8 and 9 years old, following the setters, waiting until I was old enough to cut, lol. At that time all I could do was pull, and follow setters, lay sticks and top. Once I could cut it was on, lol! Then load and hang. Oh I could help strip the last little leaves at 9 too. So silly but I felt like I was important, contributing to the family and the economy.
I grew up on a family farm outside of Hopkinsville, KY. We did all of this. Except when we topped it we also pulled the suckers off. When we cut it, we didn't spike it at the same time. And we tied the hands of tobacco and stacked them on baskets for auction. Growing a crop of tobacco was a big job all year around.
Man oh man glad I miss them days
I have very fond memories of the summer I spent in Kentucky, helpin my aunt & uncle on their farm. I got paid room & board for my labor. I was able to help out the neighboring farmers to make some spending money.
For all the talk about the death of 'baccerr it is good to see one telling a story closer to reality. PA & OH have some of the best tobacco crops also. Thank you.
I know this bunch great people and family!
Looks like they do a fine job
That was beautiful. I'm same name and I grow a little bit of tobacco in SC.
I did that kind work when i was litlle with my dad and brother and sister in nayarit mexico
Brings back horrible memories.. 5th grade through my senior year in high school. SUCKED
Bunch of hard work!

Any one with a book or manual that has comprehensive detail on tobacco farming that they can share with me or materials???
Quanto vocês recebem pelo kg do tabaco seco ?
What is the planting attachment called and where can i get one?
In Kentucky we always called them "setters" but they are actually transplanters. You can find them sitting around in barns and at the occasional farm auction. www.tractorhouse.com/listings/farm-equipment/for-sale/204809759/holland-transplanter-1304
Bringing it home is a way to go. I have liked it as well
Jajaja más cerca no
When I topped tobacco, nobody took off that many leaves, you only broke out the top.
Does it grow more leaves?
Want to taste how good this burley is? Get a can of L.J.Peretti BPC. Load it in your favorite pipe and sit back.
Where can i get some seed to try to grow here in Sweden ?
