Lee Banks- Mountain Farmer, 1974

 Item — Box: 30-A, Reel: 592

Scope and Contents

Lee Banks practices "old-timey farming", tilling the soil with his horse and wooden plow, and using methods barely different from his ancestors. The film is a tribute to a true mountaineer- a strong independent man who finds joy in his work and harmony with the land.
