History
My great-great grandfather and his brother bought this farm in the 1880s. They built a two-room log cabin by the spring on what later was named Berry Mountain. In the 1920's, they moved the log cabin across the road and added two more rooms and a bath. That house is no longer standing. They built the beautiful red barn in 1941. Every succeeding generation has farmed and cared for this land.

In 2007, my mother and I donated 18.85 acres on Berry Mountain, part of the original farm, to the Land Trust. It adjoins a little over 100 acres that was donated to the Land Trust by Watts Properties Partnership in 1999. There are incredible natural features on the property, including limestone boulders , a wet weather spring, century-old trees, and beautiful plant and animal life.
