Allamakee County Century Farms Program
1976 - 2016
The Iowa Century Farms program was started in 1976 & is sponsored by the Iowa Department of Agriculture & the Iowa Farm Bureau Federation, with the endorsement of the Iowa American Revolution Bicentennial Commission. For additional information, links to .pdf files of the applications, photos & the 2017 awards, visit the Iowa Century Farms website. The applications have a wealth of basic information, including the address of the farm, number of acres, date of original purchase by a member of the family, the legal description of the land, a list of all family owners beginning with the original family owner, & the relationship to present owner. Some of the applications have even more information.
