Making sorghum molasses at the farm

Last weekend lots of us gathered at the farm in Butler County, Kansas outside of Wichita for the annual sorghum festival with family and friends. Following the cutting of cane with machetes and pressing with a vintage press from Tennessee powered by the internals of a very sad looking car, we set off to boil. Hours later, a gooey, sweet substance emerged.

Here are a few GoPro pictures of the farm, where the sorghum cane is grown. More on the molasses making coming soon.
