Clyde Park's farm on the south side of Rt 18 east of Indian Hollow Rd, Penfield. By 1956 Mr Park had turned the operation of the 150 acres farm over to Robert Eglin and his son. Clyde's father Belden bought it from Bob Lowe in 1940. The farm was planted in corn, soy beans and hay and he raised about 40 white faced Hereford cattle. The duplex house was built in 1920 when the original burned down.

Featured as Mystery Farm number 34 by the Wellington Enterprise on July 26, 1956. Search the Lorain County home page for "mystery" to see other farms.
