The Charles Shaible Farm has been operating for over a 100 years.

An Article in Washtenaw Impressions from 1990 describes a visit to this farm: (visit link)

"A cousin. Charles Schaible. lives just down the road at 8005 Pleasant
Lake Road. They have three children. The oldest. Christina. was born 100 years to the day after John Jacob Schaible bought the farm in 1875. Charles was chosen the dairy farmer of the year last year. Gerhardt said.

They have quite a big dairy operation but they put cows in stalls to milk not in a milking parlor. They have a sawmill out back which hasn't been running much lately. They farm about
315 acres." Ziegler said.
