I've been a dirt Farmer all my life

Tweet

I began as a mixed Farmer on a farm where we had chickens, pigs, and cows, as well as growing cash-crops. Then I began to specialise in Beef Cattle. After a time this got tiring, because there was no money in it, so I took up small fruit producing. Raspberries and Strawberries mixed in with beef. I even had a motto "Better Beef and Bigger Berries," painted on the door of my truck. This lasted for a few years, and then came the Muckets! Muckets began as a drug on the market but slowly began to Boom as they multiplied. We started small with just a Mucket or Two, and slowly increased production until we were growing row upon row. Muckets are an unusual commodity in that they have to be harvested on just the right day and at exactly the right time.Its almost like they have a mind of their own. We kept them weeded and fertilized, and watered and watched them grow bigger and bigger, and then on That particular day everyone got up early and walking carefully in Bare-feet we tiptoed out to the field careful not to make a sound. And there they were glistening with dew in long straight eye-catching rows,There wasn't even a breeze as we watched them shimmering in the early morning sunlight. Some of them were already stretching and flapping so eager were they to be plucked. But we didn't let this get in the way of the Harvest. WE went right to work bending and pulling. We plucked and chucked,stripping and flipping them into Baskets, shaking the damp dirt from their tiny feather-like appendages and tossing them high onto the flatbed trailer. But no matter how quiet and careful we were, some took to the air and floated around and around, higher and higher, until they disappeared from sight, high in the cloudless blue of the early morning sky. Does anyone need a Mucket? We still have a few left.
