Notes: Written on back of photo "Where many buyers gather daily-Florida East Coast Vegetable docks-New River. Barges from the upper Everglades come via the North New River Canal during the trucking season laden with tomatoes, beans, peas, eggplants, peppers, irish potatoes and other crops. A busy place in the winter and spring months. Lauderdal best cash market east coast. Broward County heaviest shipper of mid winter vegetables-east coast. Loaded aboard FEC refrigerated cars-shipped to the winter tables of North."Created By
