The Wooster Preserving Company, founded in 1897, focused its activity on processing and packing pickles with supplies bought as much as possible from Wayne County growers, though as the business grew it sourced close to half of its supplies from beyond the county lines. By 1954, the establishment was processing from 75,000 to 100,000 bushels of cucumbers annually and employed 35 to 50 people year-round with additional staff seasonally. Products included sweet pickles, sweet gherkins, relish, dill pickles, sour pickles, and more[1].
