This is one of two carvings located in the parking lot. The other is 6 feet away and features a giant ear of corn.

The hours during the warm months (May - Dec.) are 8 AM - Dusk. I asked for information on the sculptures but the workers did not speak English and looked frightened. The business certainly does not need to be open to visit the wood work. They two carvings are located as soon as you pull into the parking lot, situated to the left of the business.

I was able to discern chain saw marks so that is what I am listing this as.
