Luray, VA
This farmers’ cooperative was formed in 1921. I decided to show it in black-and-white to give it a vintage feel, although the vehicles tell us that this is a contemporary view.
Across the parking lot is a store called the Hawksbill Trading Company, named for Hawksbill Creek. We can see the reflection of the farm co-op in the window.
The front of the store has a loading area where farmers can pick up bags of seed or feed or whatever they need. (Ha, that sounds like a slogan, doesn’t it?)
