Michigan Farm Workers
In the past 100 years, the family-owned farm has all
but vanished from the American scene. But despite the losses, farmers
remain some of the hardest working people in the United States.
When they are not planting or harvesting crops, they are repairing
equipment, feeding animals, selling crops and preparing for the
next season. The following photographs capture a day of work for
Alvin Ernst, a third-generation farmer living in southern Michigan. Photography by Sam
