HOWDY FOLKS!
The Hunsader Farms of today got its start in 1967 when three
Hunsader brothers and their families left their second generation Wisconsin dairy
farm to try their hand at growing vegetables in the sunny south. The brothers cleared
the land by hand and planted their first crop of 80 acres of tomatoes in the Spring
of 1968. The operation prospered and grew, and in 1990 it was handed down to their
sons who gave it the name Hunsader Farms.
Through the past six years, we have
added many events and activites in effort to share with the community a little piece
of our farming heritage. In 1991 we built a petting zoo and started a new educational
field trip program. In 1992 we kicked off two new events; the Pumpkin Festival and
Country Christmas. In 1995 we spent the summer building a playground and new picnic
area for families, and in 1996 we hosted our first Spring Festival and Civil War
Battle Reenactment.
The party barn is for businesses or organizations that want
to hold their company picnics on the farm.
We hope you enjoy your time with us,
and that we can help you catch a glimpse of days past when life was a little slower,
a little sweeter, and a lot simpler.
