The remains of early farms are scattered all through the area, in the fields, woods, down in the valleys, and in the hills. Seems like no matter where the homestead was, you'll find the foundation stones and daffodils, reminders of the earliest European settlers who tried to make a go of carving their niche out of the land. No one will get rich here, but the beauty of the area makes it worth trying.
