Tennessee.

The Bush cannery is in Chestnut Hill, near Pigeon
Forge, Tennessee. At the main entrance to the facility flagpoles fly the
American flag and the Bush Brothers and Company corporate flag. The flag
features the company's logo centered on a blue field. The logo, which also
appears on the company's canned products, is in the shape of a golden canning
label, bearing the word "BUSH'S" in large, capital, blue letters across the
middle above the smaller word "BEST." Arched above the name in much smaller
letters are the words "SINCE 1908."
