CHICKEN FARMERS, 1939 - Capturing the Resilience of Rural America
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from Granger Art on Demand takes us back to the year 1939 in the San Luis Valley, Colorado. The image showcases a group of hardworking chicken farmers amidst their daily routine. Photographed by Arthur Rothstein, this snapshot offers a glimpse into the early days of American farming. In an era marked by economic challenges and the implementation of Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal policies, these resilient individuals found solace in their occupation as they tended to their flocks with unwavering dedication. Against a backdrop of haystacks and vast open fields, these farmers epitomize the spirit of self-sufficiency that characterized rural communities during this time. Rothstein's lens captures not only the physical labor involved but also reveals glimpses of camaraderie among these men and women who shared a common purpose - providing for their families and contributing to society through agriculture. The photograph serves as a testament to both human determination and America's agricultural heritage. It reminds us that even in times of hardship, there is strength within communities working together towards a common goal. As we admire this timeless piece captured over eight decades ago, let it serve as an inspiration for our own lives today – reminding us to appreciate those who work tirelessly behind-the-scenes while nurturing our land and sustaining our nation’s food supply.
