In this Sarah Neel interviewed several people from the town of Clearfork, Virginia with the intent of learning more about the town and the people who live there. Ms. Neel focused on two types of people: farmers who are still farming the land that has been in their family for generations, and on the school teachers. In Cleafork the men are farmers and the women are teachers, there is no general store but Shawvers Mill is a local business where people mill lumber and grind grains- in addition, people frequently trade amongst themselves for items they need but don’t have. The town of Clearfork is composed of many members of the same family, and of people who are like family.
