This 80-inch diameter, 12-inches thick butternut plaque, was commissioned by the American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF) for their newly renovated office in Washington, D.C. It was installed on September 26, 2003, and dedicated on September 30, 2003. This 400-pound plaque symbolizes a husband and wife as farming partners, supported by the AFBF, in awe at the growth of a plant. They are standing in their vast field faced with the task of supplying food, fiber and fuel to
the world. The roundness of the plaque symbolizes the world. Joe Dillett thanks the AFBF for giving him the honor of doing this important work. |
