Currant Picking Boom At Marion County Farms
Marion county farms near Indianapolis yield currants and berries with about 40 workers on a five acre currant tract and many others on a nine and a half acre patch. The crop is down this year due to a late frost, producing far fewer cases than last year. Pickers, mostly women, receive pay by the gallon, with daily transfers to city commission houses. The Lease family home patch shows extra care and some patches underperforming due to deliberate cultivation differences. Local workers include students and newsboys, with a colorful scene of dress and daily routines observed in the field.
