Strawberry field

Title

Strawberry field

Description

Black and white image of three women and a man in a strawberry field. The field is in bloom, and the group appear to be inspecting the plants. Museum records do not identify either the farm or its location, nor do they identify these people, but the landscape is very typical of Washington County. This photo was part of the Herbert McMullen bequest. McMullen was a local photographer who, in addition to taking his own photographs, collected images that depicted daily life in the area.
