The Centennial sign shows 150 years for this family farm.
From the website (
visit link) we learn "The Parker farm is one of the oldest family properties in this area, dating back to 1836.
In 1999, most of the farm was permanently protected with conservation agreements sold to the State of Michigan farmland preservation program. It was one of the first properties so protected in Washtenaw County and in the state. Stanley & Helen Parker have now donated a conservation agreement to the Washtenaw Land Trust to protect the remaining acreage of their farm, 23 acres of mature woods on its eastern edge.
