Photo 11-FST-9

Comments

This is where my grandfather currently lives. He has owned this farm since the 1960's, and it was in my grandmother's family since the 1930's. It was pretty much always rented out to other families (Don Eger farmed here for many years), until my grandfather moved here in the early 90's. The barn has already been torn down in this photo. The two large sheds still remain but not the grain bin. The house was replaced around 2004, and the grove has since been replanted too. Grandpa put the whole half-section into WRP several years ago, and the restored wetlands and prairie are great for wildlife.
