I grew up on this farm and still live on this Farm today in 2023 . Lots of changes. Another stave silo and Harvester Silo were built. Small hog house and corn crib were torn down. Large Machine Shed (2016)and cattle shed (2011)built on the East side of the house. A farrowing house and nursery hog houses were built. Big addition added on to the finishing hog house on the south side of the road. This hog house was torn down in 2023.
My brick home was built on the south side of the road across from the silos in 1992.

Hi Dale! It's fascinating to hear about the changes on your farm over the years. We'd love to learn more about the farming practices on your property. Could you tell us what type of farming you've done there? Also, if you recall, what were some of the significant changes or events that took place in Jackson County, IA during the 1970s?
