Employee at NCF is a 'Super Gardener'
Mention gardening and
everyone who gardens has a tale
to tell about it--about cucumbers
the size of watermelons and corn
up to here, and so on and so on.
It’s not often, however, that
these tales can be proven. But
when Raymond Daniel talks
about his super garden, he can
prove every word.
Mr. Daniel is an employee in
the Grey room at North
Carolina Finishing. He also
gardens-and how he gardens!
He has made quite a name for
himself with corn 12 feet tall,
tomatoes larger than his hands
and cucumber vines as tall as he
IS.
Not only is Mr. Daniel a
gardener, he’s a super gardener.
Four gardens totalmg 2 acres
will produce a lot of vegetables.
He claims that he eats well,
keeps a big freezer well-stocked
and has lots of relatives and
neighbors who think the world of
him about this time every year.
Photographs at right show
some of the bounty from Mr.
Daniels’ super garden.
