Home for Dr. Michael Barber has always been the American South, a place where family stories are passed down as an inheritance to the next generation. Vegetables for Sale is a gathering of seven stories from Michael's childhood. Each simple story has been told on the porches and in the pulpits of the South. The stories are shared with the hope of uplifting the spirits of others while preserving the memories of people and places he loves. Michael and his wife Legay are blessed with two beautiful daughters, two wonderful sons-in-law, two grandsons, and an overweight boxer named Big Mack. Michael retired from the school system superintendency after serving more than thirty years in the public schools of Alabama. He now spends his time preaching, teaching, speaking, and playing bluegrass in the hilarious hill-billy Cake Walk string band. Michael is proud of his Southern heritage but believes wonderful people live in every part of our great nation. Waiters in Cambridge have kindly brewed him sweet tea, and cowboys have offered up prayers with him in Wyoming. Michael and Legay have found God's grace and kindness on display in every city and state they have visited (while making really bad selfies). Michael and Legay also come from families who have served our nation, and both feel a great debt of gratitude to those who have served and currently serve in America's armed forces.
