2 GEORGE RENNIE FARM, ANDOVER, MASS. 


1908—1950 
Once again we are pleased to greet our many 
customers, both old and new. We thank them 
heartily for their patronage. We especially thank 
those who have recommended our plants to their 
neighbors and friends. 
For 42 years we have been growing and shipping 
strawberry plants, starting in 1908 in a small way. 
The business has increased from a few thousand 
plants the first year, until now we are shipping 
plants to all the northeastern states. The land here 
is ideal for growing plants, a light sandy loam, 
which causes the plants to go down deep into the 
soil, making very large roots that are sure to grow. 
We grow all our own plants and if we should be 
sold out of any variety, we say so, never buying 
from anyone to fill your order as some growers 
do. In digging plants we dig a whole row, dis- 
carding all small plants, also the old or mother 
plants. Our plants are all dug after your order is 
received, taken to the packing room, cleaned and 
trimmed, ready to set out in the field. This trim- 
ming of the plants makes them very easy to set out 
and saves you much time and labor, just when you 
are rushed with your Spring work. 
Trusting that we shall continue to receive a share 
of your patronage and hoping that this will be a 
successful and prosperous year for you, we are 
Very truly yours, 
THE GEORGE RENNIE FARM 
Wallace Rennie, Owner.
