Threshing Days

Step back in time to a quiet place in the country where the days are long and the summer sun warms our back. Where the scent of new mown hay lingers, and the distant, rhythmic sound of work horses pulling in their harness drifts across ripe fields of grain.

Welcome to a special place of hard work and respect for the land. Of friendly neighbors and family togetherness. Of closeness to tradition and the cycle of the seasons.

Welcome to Lavern Kammerude’s world of rural America. Recognizing the beauty and importance of Lavern Kammerude’s work, Wisconsin Folk Museum published the popular book Threshing Days: The Farm Paintings of Lavern Kammerude, with text by Chester Garthwaite, in 1990.
