Cannery

Orchard Cannery was probably a mistaken name referring to several different canneries. Flickinger's cannery in the Berryessa district was referred to as the orchard cannery, but the 1906 city directory also has a variant in a location that wouldn't make sense for Flickingers. Another magazine mentions that Orchard Canning Company in Campbell was going to pack 100,000 cases of tomatoes that year[1]. There's also an "L.D. Costa Orchard Canning Company" mentioned[2]. L.D. Costa was in San Jose according to a list of petitions to the ICC in 1904 .
