That’s what seasons In the
sun is all about. As in
formation director for York
county farmers’ association,
county branch of American
farm bureau federation, I
was able to find an outlet for
my interests in journalism
and drama learned as a high
school teacher. At the second
meeting of the board of
directors, I suggested the
slide presentation you will be
seeing this morning as an
alternative to a speaker at
the annual meeting in 1974.1
really didn’t believe they
would take me seriously and
I never dreamed I would be
putting it together. Within a
week my four month old
gretchen was riding the back
pack scouring the county
with me and two young
photographers for pictures
and information about the
highly diversified fanning
operations in our area.
Now, what does all this
mean for you? Most of you
won’t be going home to make
a three-screen slide show.
I’m not advocating that at
all. But any effort you put
forth, any contribution you
make toward promoting
agriculture in general and
peaches in particular, in a
professional manner, will
ultimately reap financial
benefits for your industry
and for your farm.
After all we farmers are in
a minority, no matter how
elite our profession may be.
And it’s easy for those bigger

than farmers to bully us,
especially since wc aren't
very organized in the sense
of unions.
So wc arc beset by
bureaucrats; bombarded by
Inspectors who must shuffle
through their fine print
books to find something
wrong with our setups;
banned from using
chemicals that never killed
our great grandfathers;
accused of killing off the few
people who will work for us
for their livings; Insulted
with accusations that we
intend to ruin the land from
which we derive our sole
hvlihood; and deprived of a
decent and favorable at
mosphere in which to con
duct the business of
producing food.
The ultimate irony is that
in this day and age where
food shortages are a real
concern and often an im
minent threat, the man who
produces food must defend
this right to do so. And in that
defense he is taken away
from the business of
prodution.
If our men are to be
allowed to accomplish the
work they have chosen to do,
they must not be forced into
comers of compliance with
bureaucratic authority.
They cannot work in a
courtroom, at a regulatory
hearing defending them
selves or behind bars for
refusing to do the
unreasonable. They cannot

work confined In
nstronautlcal garb or
protected to death by roll
bars that ruin their crops.
They cannot Improve their
product without funds for
research.
They must be permitted to
use the materials that assure
them the best product
possible to meet existing
quality standards at a cost
that won't force them out of
farming. And they must be
allowed to make a profit,
which is a six-letter word not
a four-lettter word.
That’s where you can held.
If you want to preserve your
life on the land; if you want
to insure enough food for now
and future; if you believe in
your husband, his
profession; then you must
become a professional
partner to speak out when
he’s working at home, to
cultivate relationships with
the media, to meet with and
convince legislators the
country needs farmers, to
promote peaches all year
round and advertise when
the crop is ready to move, to
inform the non-farm
population about your needs
and problems and services
as well as keep the books,
work in the market or
packing shed, drive the
tractor, mow the orchard,
drop everything to run for
parts, feed the family at the
packing house, share your
ambitions and goals with
your children and clean the
house if there’s time.
In any event, if you hope to
make a living in farming,
you must become a
professional and work for the
common good of food
production, and distribution,
and sales and your own
personal gain.
Don’t vent your anger over
the back fence complaining
about your state in the
economic affairs of this
nation. Don’t cop out by
selling out and living less
than the life you want.
Exonerate your
exasperation with some
constructive imput into the
industry. Become a
professional!
