The history in agriculture is amazing. Look forward to more stories, but one of my favorites is the house that built me. This house has been re-modeled to fit many generations of my family but the original home turns 100 years old this year. Built in 1914, my great-great grandpa paid $2,700 for the home. My great grandpa was born in the front room and when I graduated, my great aunt Viola toured the renovated home, explaining how it used to be. My grandpa, my dad, and now my sisters and I grew up in this home. I'm blessed and proud of the house that built me, including the story behind it.
