History Colorado

In the late 1920s Jacob's son Jake and his wife Nettie took over the running of the farm.  They raised horses, ran a cow herd and purchased calves to summer on the grass.  The original claim grew to the current 4,130 acres by 1984. The farm is still very active today, producing grain products and oats for cattle feed.
