Knee high by the 4th of July is an old farmer saying and benchmark for a good corn crop. But with improved seed genetics and farming practices, farmers expect their corn to be at least waist high if not head high (
or higher, like we are seeing this year) on our farm in North Iowa.

It has become tradition for us to take a
Knee High by the 4th of July photo every year. It is a fun way to document our farm family, as well as our crop progress for the year. Check out past years -
2015,
2014,
2013,
2012. This year's corn crop looks the most similar to 2012,
but add three more kids!
We hope you all had a great Independence Day! What was the best part of your day? Remember to
Comment for a Cause!
Love this picture of the corn and your beautiful family! Hope your holiday was fabulous! Miss you!
ReplyDeleteMiss you too Beth Ann! We had a great 4th of July spending time with both family and friends. Hope you had a great holiday too.
