"A JOURNEY THROUGH TIME"   Lithograh size 25 1/2" x 16 1/2"

The invasion of the boll weevil between 1915-1920 forced farmers in the southeast to look for alternataive crops to produce.  Peanuts became the answer.  With the encouragement of the Farm Security Act in 1939, peanut production became a mainstay in southwest Georgia, southeast Alabama and the panhandle of Florida as well as the southwest and the Virginia/Carolina areas.  Peanut production was labor intensive until peanut pickers arrived on the scene that would crawl down the row and pick up the dry peanut vines.  First the pickers had sacking attachments and soon dump baskets.  Shortly thereafter fourteen foot wagons became available that allowed artificial drying which greatly improved the quality of the crop. 

Today, the areas in peanut production have expanded as has the technology that continues to make peanuts a viable crop.  "A Journey Through Time" is an overview of the development and evolution of one of America's favorite foods; Peanuts! 

This painting was commissioned by the Southern Peanut Farmers Federation which consists of the Alabama Peanut Producers Association, the Florida Peanut Producers, the Georgia Peanut Commission and the Mississippi Peanut Growers Association.
