Bradley Easter hoes' Things On The Grow LOIS SZYMANSKI Maryland Correspondent There’s a new video out for kids that is going to turn some heads. The video, “Tractors, Com bines and Things On The Grow” was produced by Cockeysville resident Patti Schindler. The first video in a series she plans to pro duce with her new company, “Just Our Size Videos”, Mrs. Schindler’s video shows how farms work, from seed to feed. “Tractors, Combines and Things On The Grow” takes the viewer on an amazing journey, from the grocery store, into the field, to show just how our food is grown and produced. Kids will be amazed by the fast-growing corn scene that was provided by Media Resources Center at lowa State University. Shot with time lapse photography, it shows how corn evolves over the course of its growing season. Large portions were filmed on a Lippy Brothers Farm, showing how a combine works, with views from the field, Blake Schindler fii day out.
