  1. Lore of Certain Days

    Share Share Post
    Nearly every farmer sets something on Good Friday. Whatever is set on Good Friday is sure to grow. When a person is moving from a house to a new one they always change on a Friday because it is a lucky day.
    No farmer sets a crop when the moon is full because it has a bad effect on the crop.
