Marker text:

The Pig Homesteading families in the Panhandle commonly had a pig or two for personal consumption. It was not until 1992 when Seaboard Farms announced the were going to build a pork processing plant in Guymon that the pork industry leapt forward here on the Oklahoma Plains. Now, in the early 2000s, 4,000,000 hogs a year are raised in Northwest Oklahoma and the Panhandle for processing at the Guymon plant.
The pork industry has become an integral part of the economy of the Panhandle, as well as the entire state of Oklahoma.
