Farm Life
hay



    Paul was born and raised on his Charleston farm.  He found the farm to be a great inspiration for his paintings.  We have found that it would have been different living on a farm then then it would be like living on a farm now.  Our group made bread and butter to think about how difficult it would be to make something like this everyday without being about to run to the store. 


                     Today                                                            Same                                                           Paul Sargent's Day
            
     We use Combines                                                                                                                        Made their own butter
   
   We go to the stores for food                                                                                                      Used hand-made tools and horses

                                                                                   Grow the same crops
                                                                                  
                                                                                   A lot of hard work
                                                                                  
                                                        They use the crops that were grown for themselves as well
