Address: 10544 40th St SW, Howard Lake, MN - (Birkholz Farm)
The house in the photo was built in 1939. An old house used to be on the property before the current one, and that house was moved to Maple Lake.
The barn was built in 1910 and metal siding was added in 1958.
There was a silo on the east side of the barn is no longer there. The barn is starting to collapse. The silo in the photo was built sometime between 1966-1970.
The pole shed is still there and 2 of the grain bins are still there.

Hello Andy,
Thank you for all your informative posts. Do you have a connection to this property?

I do have a connection! I just bought this property! I'm hoping to order photos of it at some point to hang up in the house!
