Rabbits on the Henize farm

The Henizes raised rabbits on their farm in the 1910s. In the following photographs, you can see several of the Henize children (including my great grandmother Lucy) posing with the rabbits. I believe the structures in the first picture have the rabbit hutches in the background.

The very last picture is a bonus of Grandma Kathleen with what I believe was a pet rabbit, since it was named Hink.

It's overexposed and hard to see, but the rabbits are there!

That's some harvest!
