Swinkey

Swinkey farmer Floyd Buckman died in a car crash in late August. This week, his friends are bringing in the harvest he left behind. In fact, so many people showed up on his farm to help that there were more workers than actual work to be done. Four combines and a fleet of trucks are making quick work of the corn harvest. They'll be back in a few weeks when it's time for the soybeans to come out of the field.

What is Swinkey? It's a question I often get, especially since I tend to work the word in at least once a week on our radio show. Actually, Swinkey is not a what but a where. In fact, it's barely a where.

The Swinkey Corn Maze is back for another year of fun.
