There’s more to farming than meets the guy

ASHTON, Ill. — Andrea LeFevre wants the world to know that farm women are more than a footnote.

“Maybe it’s not visible to the world that we do all these things, but it’s what makes the day go by, all these little routine things. Whatever needs to be done, we do it. That’s just farm women. We get it done,” she said.

One of the things she got done recently was her first children’s book, “A Day on the Farm with Mama: Harvest Edition,” which was published in the fall of 2022. Her inspiration for the book was another children’s book that was a favorite of her sons, Bryar, 3, and Boone, 1.
