The Minnesota State Fair and the Minnesota Farm Bureau recently recognized 170 Minnesota farms as 2008 Century Farms, including four Carver County farms.
Qualifying farms have been in continuous family ownership for at least 100 years and are 50 acres or more. Century Farm families receive a commemorative sign, as well as a certificate signed by the State Fair and Minnesota Farm Bureau presidents and Governor Pawlenty. Since the program began in 1976, over 8,600 Minnesota farms have been recognized as Century Farms.
2008 Century Farm families in Carver County include: Hamburg: Stuewe Family, 1903; New Germany: John & Jill Hedtke, 1901; Watertown: Cederstrom-Pierson Family, 1908; Watertown: Lawrence & Eileen Pysick, 1883
