This is our home farm before we did significant conservation efforts, Correcting extensive erosion,
We raised a lot of livestock and pedigreed horses, There was a fantastically delicious pear tree,.

Hi Don, thank you for sharing your memories of your home farm in Johnson County, IA! It sounds like you have fond memories of the property. We'd love to learn more about your experiences. What type of farming did you do on the land? Has anything changed since the photo was taken in 1964?

The bulk of the original buildings are gone brother Vern built new house and garages,
The old pear tree is gone but many new trees have been established. Grounds are well maintained,
