1/4 mile south of 75th ave, east down long lane from 270th st. Gerald Young farm and airport. Nothing left in photo. House, buildings and grain bins now at far south end of runway/driveway.

I believe this is the Stewart "Spud" Young Farm. Brother of Gerald. It's on the south side of 75th AV, about a half mile east of 283rd Street. Rivoli Twp.. The house, long shed and barn are still there. This place also had a landing strip.

Hi Scott! Thank you for sharing your insights about the Stewart "Spud" Young Farm in Mercer County. It sounds like a fascinating place with its house, long shed, barn, and landing strip. Do you have any memories or stories about growing up in that area during 1965?
