Title
Strawberry Field, Banks, OR
Description
A large field of strawberries, rows running into the distance. Various unidentified people are at work in the field, kneeling and working with the plants. Most are men, though two are identifiably women in skirts. Almost all wear hats; some have fabric draped over their heads. The ground appears dry and dusty. In the background, thick stands of pine trees are visible. 'Strawberry field near Hillsboro [struck out] Banks' is typed across the top of the image.
