OMG I love Liberty Hyde Bailey! He really transformed the ag program at Cornell and was supportive of the home economics department there. He was also involved in food policy in New York during World War I. Crazy prolific author, super cool guy.

Thank you Amy, I love your devotion. When I worked in a school garden with kids and plantings, Bailey was an inspiration and his words were companions.

Very nice write-up on Liberty Hyde Bailey! I'm familiar with him due to him and I having the same alma mater, Michigan State University. Glad you finally got to see where he grew up; South Haven is a nice area.
