Two girls stand in a grassy field with baskets, bending over to pick berries, a scene that sits quietly apart from the holiday tables and parades usually associated with the Thanksgiving board. Berry picking was a seasonal chore on many farms and in rural households, and children were often sent out to help gather fruit for preserves, pies and cooking through the autumn. Pictures like this one show the harvest work that stood behind the holiday meal, the labor of late summer and early fall that filled the pantry before winter arrived. Look at the open field and the way the girls' attention stays on the ground, which reflects how much patient, repetitive effort went into putting food on the table.
