Quarrying Flint Ridge flint at Nethers Farm Aug. 6

Me and my parents took the time to quarry some flint ridge flint at Nethers farm before the knap in later in August. Nethers farm sits right on the flint deposit, they charge a five dollar collecting fee and fifty cents per pound for any material you collect. To find knapable pieces, one has to do a lot of sorting and/or digging in the pits.
