SARA GETTYS/Yakima Herald-Republic
Orchardist Helen Reddout of Reddout Orchards spent more than $300,000 to built the tent city that will house her orchard's pickers each year. While the tents are rented each season, each stands on a concrete pad, and two other buildings hold shower, restroom, and kitchen facilities to serve over 90 workers. This is the first year for the camp, which is not completed yet. More tents and grass lawn on the parts of the grounds that aren't covered in gravel will be additions completed before next year's residents arrive.
