  • Gevevieve Sekulovich in the Weston Antique Apples orchard near New Berllin, Wisconsin.<br />
<br />
Weston's Orchards, the oldest active orchard in Waukesha, were established in 1935 by Harvey and Alice Weston on a site owned by Alice's father, William Marckwardt. By this time the farm already had an orchard and several of its current buildings. For example, its Dutch colonial style barn dates to 1901.<br />
<br />
The family-operated orchards have supplied the public with historic apple varieties for over 60 years. Some of the orchards' trees were planted in the late nineteenth century and significant additional plantings were made during the Great Depression by the orchards current owners. The orchards cover 16 acres with more than 700 trees and over 100 varieties with dates varying from the Calville Blanc d'Hiver (1598), Gravenstien (1600) to the Wolf River (1881) and Pink Pearl (1944). Weston's Orchards work to conserve these antique apple vaieties from extinction. The Old Church apple, for example, is grown solely on their farm.

  • Demonstration of horse plowing with a traditional moldboard plow at the Wisconsin Farm Technology days in Albany, Wisconsin.  Such plowing always left broad slaps of earth like this that would then be disked and/or raked in subsequent tillage to break them up and make the field ready for planting.<br />
