    A picture from 1976 of my Grandparents that was recently run in a local paper. The 10 acres of the farm that I own has been in the family since 1868

    I also have the Centennial Farm Marker that is in the picture in my garage. I will dig it out and post a picture.

    Really cool stuff! Farming sure has changed a lot in the last 150 years.

    Very nice. I fondly recall a family that took me in when I was young and they got the centennial farm sign. They were so proud, and so was I. We also know of many farms with those signs around this area but concretegrazer is right, farming has really changed a lot over the years.
