PUBLISHERS NOTE:


As a young boy, I was raised on Candy Cane Christmas Tree Farm located less than a mile from Andy’s. I knew Andy very well. My parents bought the tree farm in 1965. I can remember the very first days we went there. Always fresh and affordable, raising the five of us kids, my mom loved the place. We saw An- dy’s family grow from that time


on. Andy’s entrepre-


neurial spirit never ceased to amaze me. He always tried new things to offer to the public, and at one time there used to be a nursery at the very same location on high- way 116. It is a very friendly place to visit. You’ll love all the fresh produce. ~ P.A.D.

Bread really does tend to land buttered side down when dropped. In 2001, Robert Matthews of Aston University in Birmingham, England, had over 1,000 school children drop almost 10,000 buttered bread slices from table height. 62 per- cent (6,101) slices landed buttered side down.


Brown trout were one of the first types of fish to be farmed and bred - dating back to at least 15th century Europe. Brown trout are originally from Europe, and were brought to America during the 19th century.


The largest brown trout weighed over 40 pounds and was caught in Arkansas on May 9, 1992.


In 2018 U.S. Butter production was more than 433 million pounds.
