Crop artist Stan Herd transforms Centre County farmland into Biden campaign message

A globetrotting crop artist and his 12-person team recently left their ephemeral 1-acre mark on a Ferguson Township farm with an ingratiating homage to presidential candidate Joe Biden.

A group led by Stan Herd asked Kevin and Georgia Abbey if they could use the Abbeys’ land for the better part of October to complete their latest project. It didn’t take long for the Abbeys to say yes.

“We live in the midst of hardworking farmers, business owners, health care workers, musicians, food service workers, accountants and truck drivers. We felt like this was an honor for all of these folks here in the village of Gatesburg and across Centre County, the state and our nation,” Georgia Abbey said. “It honors all those people for what we believe makes America great — we’re all full of grit, hard work and integrity. It’s also a vision of the many different ways and aspects to knit our neighborhood and our country together, rather than render it apart.”

Yes, I know build back better is Biden’s, but the picture itself reminds of the art in early post office bldgs and libraries
