From Dale and Darcy
We are excited to say that our second book Tobacco Sheds: Vanishing Treasures of the Connecticut River Valley has just been released. In addition, we were lucky enough to win An Archie Green Grant from the Library of Congress to collect the oral history of tobacco workers in the Valley. The grant will give us a chance to return to farms in the Valley and this time focus on the people who work so hard to grow and cure some of the worlds most beautiful tobacco leaves.
We hope that you find all that you need here. If you are a returning visitor, you will see that we have restocked our store and we have added framed tobacco leaves. The frames are custom made for each leaf so no two are alike. They are beautiful. We also redesigned the note cards which are now 5x7 and made with heavy stock.
