Silver Creek & Seamans' Orchards

In 1959 Silver Creek Packing Shed was started as a packing facility for Silver Creek Orchards and Lea & Seaman Orchard.

The founding families were John T. Morton, Silver Creek Orchards; and Alton R. Seaman & Joyce Seaman, Lea & Seaman Orchard.

The packing facility became Flippin-Seaman, Inc. in 1974.

At that time, the families involved in the packing process were the George Flippin and Alton Seaman families.

Eddie Seaman was in charge of the packing shed, while Bill Flippin (Silver Creek Orchards) and Richard Seaman (Seamans’ Orchard) were involved with the day to day operations of their orchards.
