I remember when my grandparents made sorghum when I was kid in Yell Co Ark. They supplemented their retirement by making quarts of sorghum and selling it for the great sum of $3.00 a quart back in the 1970's -they lived in the country and people would drive for miles to come and get some. They never advertised it -it was all word of mouth. I remember that when they finally gave it up as too much work (which it was!!!) they sold the copper pan & their grinding mill to another elderly couple who were going to try their hand at it. I loved mixing molasses with butter and putting it on my biscuits. I also remember the work -we grandchildren assisted in cutting the cane and stripping off the leaves to put it in the grinder then toting away the used cane for the pigs. My grandparents would be in the "sorghum house" where the pan was and working over it -skimming it off and moving the cooking molasses through the various compartments of the pan until it reached the end and they could pour it off into containers to be bottled up. Brings back a lot of memories. Sincerely, Vickie Miller
