HARVESTING GUIDE
Wells & Wade gear is built to carry the harvest and last for years. A short routine of care keeps your bags, buckets and tools working season after season.
Balance the load across both shoulders and set the straps so the weight rides on your hips, not your neck. A well-fitted bag lets you pick longer with less fatigue.
Empty the bag from the bottom to avoid bruising, then brush off dirt and let the canvas dry fully before storing. Never put a damp bag away — it invites mildew.
Straps, buckles and liners wear before the bag does — and every one is replaceable. Swap the worn hardware and your gear is good as new for another season.
Match the gear to the job: a chest bag for apples and pears, buckets for delicate fruit, a girdling tool for cane and vine, and a padded harness for the long days.
