State Fair produce exhibit

Title

State Fair produce exhibit

Description

A family stands around their prize-winning produce exhibit. A wagon with six huge pumpkins lined up along the edge and with ten-foot-plus cornstalks held up at either end stands in the middle of the image. A girl in a white blouse and plaid skirt stands in the wagon behind the pumpkins, and a man in a suit kneels and holds a dog. Two young men in work clothes stand next to each bundle of cornstalks. In the background is a barn, and the grown beneath the wagon is covered with straw. A large round bale of hay is just visible to the right edge of the image.
