Planted Nut Trees Along Road Near Lititz Farm
Levi Erb of North Broad Street sold his farm to Henry Vshieman near the Hammer Creek meeting house and planted about twenty Japanese walnut trees along the main road to Clay. The trees grow well and should bear in about five years, offering nuts and shade. Erb notes walnuts and cherry trees as long-term investments and cites a farmer who regrets not planting black walnuts earlier. Corn prices stay steady at 25 cents a dozen with locals growing it in their gardens and choosing harvest times to preserve sweetness in hot weather.
