Sharpie Farm?

So there I was, walking down the road when I stumbled upon it...

What is this I asked myself. Is it some kind of a meeting of sharpies? Maybe a support group for underused Sharpies or a family reunion I thought.

Then I went in for a closer look and realized it was a sharpie patch, with young underdeveloped Sharpies developing roots and growing towards the bright sunlight above.

Where in the world do they grow these things? Imagine driving down a busy freeway and you come across a large industrial farm growing millions of Sharpies with high pressure water spraying their development and the biggest harvesting machines you have even seen waiting at the end of the rows of color to pluck those ripe markers from the ground to be sent to the retail outlet near you!

I wonder what type of herbisides they use on Sharpie farms. Or maybe they are organic farms delivering only natural colors and sizes to the world. Just think of the possibilities...
