Project Description
When Great Grandmother Elizabeth Bauman started farming in 1894, I’m sure she had no idea how many people her farm would eventually serve. Today Bauman Farms grows an abundance of fresh fruits and vegetables sold exclusively at the fruit stand on Howell Prairie.
It wasn’t always such a large, well-run operation. For many years a horn honk signaled the arrival of a customer. A customer wanting a bushel of peaches or sack of potatoes or just a friendly chat. Elizabeth’s grandson, Clyde, liked the friendly chats as well as the extra cash to feed his family of eight children.
