Preparing for Dozinky

John Barten, left, drives as his brother Joe Barten, with son Vincent in tow, checks the corn stalks as they go through a 1920 corn binder on Monday, Sept. 12. They were preparing corn stalks that will be used as decorations for New Prague’s Czech harvest festival, Dozinky this Friday and Saturday, Sept. 16, and 17.

Also helping on Monday was their mom Fran Barten and brother-in-law Tyler Yearby.
