In the late 1880s, Stringfellow Orchards was owned by Henry Martyn Stringfellow (1839–1912), a successful businessman. Because of his success, Stringfellow was able to pay orchard workers $1 per day (when the going wage was 50 cents). This enabled workers, mostly freed slaves, the opportunity to better take care of their families and progress after Emancipation.
