Port Penn Cannery

Description

I'm using my latest Delaware history page for the "Life Begins" challenge this month. We're the first state in the USA, after all! This marker was about a cannery that used to be in one of our little coastal towns, that shipped tomatoes and peaches to distributors in Philadelphia, Baltimore, and beyond.
