Description
Large wooden hoop frame with thin slats of wood woven across it. This creates a shallow tray on one side of the hoop. The hoop is held together by ties around the hoop itself. Some of the ties have broken causing the hoop to come apart.
The hoop and weave are very brittle.
Object History
These items belonged to the Hong family - who founded Hop On Farms in Burnaby. Heritage Burnaby has a number of photos and an oral history about the family.
Seed drying tray, used when the family saved their own seed. They saved their seed to have a reliable supply of vegetable seeds difficult to find through the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s: choi sum, gai lan, bok choi. The seed heads were clipped and placed on the tray, and stored in the greenhouses to dry down. A finer sieve would have been used to separate the seeds from the chaff.
