State Fair-MN Farm Bureau Federation Accepting Century Farm Applications
Feb 4, 2021 - Mar 1, 2021
Minnesota families who have owned their farms for 100 years or more are invited to apply for the 2021 Century Farm Program.
Produced by the Minnesota State Fair in conjunction with the Minnesota Farm Bureau Federation, the Century Farm Program was created to promote agriculture and honor historic family farms in the state. More than 10,500 Minnesota farms have been honored since the program began in 1976.
Family farms are recognized as a Century Farm when three requirements are met. The farm must be: 1) at least 100
years old according to authentic land records; 2) in continuous family ownership for at least 100 years (continuous
residence on the farm is not required); and 3) at least 50 acres and currently be involved in agricultural production.
A commemorative certificate will be awarded to qualifying families, along with an outdoor sign signifying Century Farm status. The deadline to apply is March 1st.
