Picnic Grounds Couple's Project by Bernice Holden
Bernhard Fleming, a retired farmer and oil worker near Wellsville, spent 25 years creating a private picnic grounds on his country acreage. He dug ponds, built a dock, planted trees and flowers, and added a cabin with a fireplace, a swing, table, and outdoor fireplace. Assisted by Merle Todd, he is adding a fifth pond and a well to provide drinking water. Church groups may picnic there with permission, and Fleming considers his work a shared gift to the community.
