In November of 2014, I had to opportunity to photograph Norm Holtz, a farmer from Ida, Michigan. I met Norm at Detroit’s Eastern Market, where he’s been selling produce since 1968. His hands were still dirty from that morning’s work. The 60 acres of farmland have belonged to his family since the late 19th century. Born and raised in Ida, he started working on the farm while in high school. Norm hasn’t stopped since and has no plans to retire anytime soon.
