Steam Powered Cane Crusher
Added 2019-10-18 01:02:47 +0000 UTCI had planned for over a month to go up to the Jarrell Plantation in Julitte Ga to see them crush their sugar cane with what may be the last steam powered cane crusher left. I was to video it. The weather is set for rain all Saturday thanks to the incoming storm. I'm bummed. I'm not going to go now. My cameras do not like getting wet, and they can't run the steam engine in the rain.
I've spent the whole week planning for a shoot. Perhaps next year. In any event you can see this footage on youtube.
If the name Julitte GA sounds familiar, it's the home of the real whistle stop cafe from the book at film Fried Green Tomatoes. Yup, that place is real.
