I grew up on the Patterson homestead. The corn crib and cattle shed are gone. The barn and hog house are now painted red and the house is blue. Lots of great memories working and playing on the farm.

Hi Mia! It's fascinating to hear about your childhood memories on the Patterson homestead! We'd love to learn more about your experience growing up there. What type of farming did your family do on the property? How has the area changed since the photo was taken in 1973? Feel free to share any other details or anecdotes from that time.
