We were passing through Kernersville, North Carolina and spotted this little white van, parked at a restaurant, with bold red letters and a large phone number printed on the side.
It read "History Making Farming Author - On the move"
We had to find out what this meant, so we called the number and it led us to a farm in Rural Hall, NC to meet a wonderful storyteller on a mission to teach children how to grow their own food.

Somehow if I plant a seed it might grow or it might not. I mean my crop is never what I would like it to be.
True. But the mash ... ( 8 months ago by MondoBeno)
True. But the mash that's left after fermentation is protein-rich and can be fed to cattle. Also, if the farmers are getting more money for their corn, we can end the farm subsidies.

This guy has a point. With the subprime crisis eating up the economy and ethanol fuel driving up corn prices, growing your own food is a good idea.
This summer I'm growing corn, melons, tomatoes and cucumbers in the yard. I'm going to grow the tomatoes upside down and hanging from posts to save space.

This is a great video. Thanks for making it. I'm really interested in growing my own food and building my own place. Working towards that end now. Hope to be able to stay away from town for months at a time.

This is no vegetable garden; this is a real farm. It's hard work, but if you you love food that much, it makes sense. I tried growing my own food this year and screwed up big time. I do have some nice cucumbers to show for it though.
Next year I'm planting a big vegetable garden again, but I have it planned better.

Vern and Joes is more in the town of Germanton which is right outside of Rural Hall. I live in Rural Hall and there's not really much here but a bad hot dog place and a depot for the Yadkin Yalley Railroad. Thank you thought for making good videos about North Carolina. :)
A good place to visit in Rural Hall is the Nazareth Lutheran Church on Hwy. 65. There are Confederate graves in the church graveyard and a Revolutionary war Lt.Colonel Anthony Bitting whose land was once the entire town.
