It’s my parents farm, I grew up there. Big farm house was built in 1786!

Hi Brenda, thanks for sharing your memories of your parents' farm with us! We love to hear stories like yours. Do you remember any particular chores or activities you did growing up on the farm? It's amazing that the farmhouse has been standing for over 200 years - has anything changed about the property or the surrounding area since this photo was taken in 1970? Thanks for visiting Vintage Aerial!

Yes a lot has changed, dad sold the farm house to a couple who loved renovated old homes. But her husband passed an it’s all over grown. My parents built in a field behind the big barn an still live there, mom is 97 an dad will be 100 this year! We were a family of 7 kids, raised a huge garden, cows, sheep, horses and made our on hay. Canned all veggies and apples from the apple orchard. Which still has apples each year. Best times of our lives I say!
