The Mayer family's sesquicentennial farm in Washington County, Wisconsin, has a rich history that dates back to 1853 when it was homesteaded by the family. Originally a 50-acre wheat farm, the property transitioned into a dairy farm around the turn of the century. Over the years, the farm has been passed down through generations, and today, it serves not only as a thriving agricultural operation but also as a popular event venue. The barn, a centerpiece of the property, has been meticulously restored with the help of Amish craftsmen to preserve its heritage, while the farm hosts agri-tourism activities and community events. The farm remains a cherished part of the family, and they are proud to honor their 150-year legacy while looking forward to its future for generations to come.
