Summary
On September 10, 2009, Landsat scanned this true-color image of farmland across northwest <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Minnesota" class="mw-redirect" title="Minnesota">Minnesota</a>, including a view of Noreen Thomas' organic farm on the banks of the Buffalo River near the middle of the image. From space this farm looks like a patchwork quilt. Fields change hue with the season and with the alternating plots of organic <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wheat" title="Wheat">wheat</a>, <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Soybeans" title="Category:Soybeans">soybeans</a>, <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Zea_mays" title="Zea mays">corn</a>, <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Medicago_sativa" title="Medicago sativa">alfalfa</a>, <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Flax" class="mw-redirect" title="Flax">flax</a>, or <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Hay" title="Hay">hay</a>. Lush green fields dominate the image, though some crops have already been harvested leaving squares of tan and brown.
