Hats

When being a farmer you have to make a lot of decisions. You have to pick whether you are going to plant corn or beans on a field. You have to decide what type of seed you want and where you are going to get it from. Now there are many deciding factors that help with this decision. One factor though that you can never forget about is the hats that the place you choose from will supply you with. All farmers love their hats and have many types of hats for any special occasion hidden at home.



My brothers do not hang up a lot of their shirts or coats but they have a huge hat hanger always filled with tons of their favorite hats. There's nothing worse than a squished flat farm hat but a wrinkled shirt really doesn’t bother them much. Farmers have certain hats for certain occasions. The first type of hat most farmers have is their work hat. Now this type of hat is used to the max! It is probably covered in dirt and if it has a logo it’s either worn off or also covered in dirt. This hat fits perfectly on the farmers head and the bill is also a rounded perfection to keep the sun from his eyes.



The next type of hat a farmer has is his good hat. The farmer has many of these hats around the house. Picking a hat to go out in is a bigger decision then picking which plaid shirt to wear when they go somewhere. These are the types of hats farmers wear to farm shows, farm equipment auctions, and banquets.



The next type of hat is the sports outing hat. Now this hat isn’t your typical sport hat that is Nike. This is the type of hat that is a specific color to match the team they are cheering for. The logo however is still anything farm related. If you’re lucky you might find a hat in their stash with a small team logo on the side, but on the front it is still a farm hat.



I wish you all the best this spring and be safe hopefully with little to no problems with your equipment. I hope you also get some cool hats or other apparel from the places you choose to do business with this spring. Happy planting! ~ Kesley Holdgrafer
