Washington Co., WI – Knee high by the Fourth of July is an old-timey saying in the farming community; an early visual that could signal a prosperous growing season.
Amanda Hafeman submitted this photo of her daughter Clara, 1-1/2, standing by one of her grandpa’s (Stan Miller) corn fields in Jackson WI, located near G and Hwy 60.
“Knee high” was always the saying but with improvements in genetics and pushing early planting dates we usually expect growth over the waist.
