Middlesex farmers harvesting good crop

Thanks to plenty of rain, Middlesex County farmers are harvesting a good crop of corn this year. In this after dark view, the golden harvest flows from a truck headed for storage at Hampstead Farm’s grain bin that was built last year near Cooks Corner.

Hampstead Farm’s Jason Bray said the large grain storage silo allows him to harvest quicker because he doesn’t have to haul grain to granaries several miles away and wait for trucks to be unloaded during the busy harvest season. A quicker harvest also takes advantage of good weather, he said. (Photo by Tom Chillemi)
