J.M. Bailiff Farm

What is a Century Farm?

The Tennessee Century Farms Program was created in 1975 by the Tennessee Department of Agriculture as part of our nation’s bicentennial celebration. The focus of the program is to recognize and document the families who have owned and farmed the same land for at least 100 years.

The T truck in Alexandria

Finally home

We traveled to Terre Haute, Indiana to meet the owner. Terre Haute is about 20 miles from Paris, Illinois. Put the truck on our trailer and started back toward Alexandria. We ran into some snow and sleet. Stayed overnight at a hotel. And made it home the next day without incident.
