This was my dad's (Robert Mayer) farm. He bought the place in 1965 from Rolf Setter, and built several additions on the barn, the silos, and the pole barn. Many show-winning registered Holsteins came from that barn.

Thank you for sharing your memories of your dad's farm! We love hearing stories like this. Can you tell us more about what it was like growing up in Polk County around that time? Or maybe what you remember about the show-winning Holsteins that came from the barn?
