Did anyone enjoy picking stones by hand?
Peru, NY, May 13, 2026 – Adirondack Farms was picking stone today in a field adjacent to the Brand Hollow Rd., the former Torrence Farm. I’m sure some readers recall picking stones using their bare hands and a stone boat pulled by a farm tractor. My Uncle Steve Ryan pulled his stone boat with a team of horses. Saranac’s fields have many more stones than Peru’s.Posted: May 13th, 2026 under Adirondack Region News, Agricultural News, Business News, Northern NY News, Peru News.
