Clip description
Fruit pickers pick peaches off trees and empty their bags into a trough. They then sort the peaches into crates and hammer them closed for transportation. Four women arrive by truck and eat the peaches, demonstrating how delicious the peaches are to eat.
Curator’s notes
This Australasian Gazette newsreel shows us the method of fruit picking at a peach orchard in Hamilton, Queensland. Simply shot, the story is introduced with a title card and shot in chronological order to give a sense of process.
