None of these young grape-eaters is identified. But doesn't the woman standing at the right look like Tekla Anderson? And the man seated at right looks to me like Eric Carlson. And behind them is that familiar picket fence, so this might possibly be at the Carlson house on Michigan Avenue.

7/11/2016 update: Another ID! The young woman standing second from the left has been identified as Mabel Carlson, daughter of Ida (Melin) and Axel Carlson, by C.K. Melin, who sent me this photograph for comparison:

Looks like a match to me!
