Rural Texas Women at Work, 1930–1960
Industrious and enterprising, rural Texas women performed the common tasks of housewives everywhere—cooking, housekeeping, and doing laundry. In addition, they raised large gardens, tended flocks of poultry, canned and preserved foods for their families, made and repaired furnishings, picked cotton, drove tractors, and took over the men’s work during World War II.
Rural Texas Women at Work is sponsored by Texas A&M University,Texas Agricultural Extension Service, and the Arts Council of Brazos Valley and is produced by Humanities Texas, the state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities
