Who Knew....in Connecticut

Work took me to South Central Massachusetts/North Central Connecticut. As I drove from CT to MA each day I passed several crop fields. I've never seen tobacco plants before. The person I was working with told me that CT used to be a big producer of cigar tobacco. The fields I saw weren't that big. Most of the old tobacco fields are now sod farms.

But I did get a picture of this field.


I also saw this barn where they hang the leaves to dry. It's pretty cool design how the barn opens up to let in fresh air.
