When Grandpa Farmed – History of Farming in Jay County

A print of a painting by American artist Norman Rockwell will be featured at this year’s festival. Following a visit to the Steed farm in southern Jay County, Mr. Rockwell painted a picture which included members of the Steed family and county extension agent, H.K. Rippey. The original art appeared in a 1948 issue of the Saturday Evening Post.
