Topuria Vinegar and Pickling Works shines in Topeka
A Topeka Journal visit details Otto Kushoe’s Topuria Vinegar and Pickling Works near the Rock Island bridge. The plant employs many locals, processes tomatoes, cucumbers, jelly and preserves, and bottles goods for shipment in barrels, kegs, and bottles. The factory’s bottling room houses sixteen workers, and steam heats and cooks throughout the facility. The piece notes steady farm employment and the district’s appetite for pure jellies, jams, pickles, and the signature silver leaf catsup.
