    AMERICAN FARMSTEAD

    The farm has many places within it; each an individual scene and story waiting to be told. American Farmstead captures the essence and history of the farm - The barn where the animals meet, the Silo where life-giving grain is stored, and the heart and soul, the farmhouse, standing proud and strong. And what farm would be complete without the family dog chasing the tractor alongside the old fence that keeps animals from straying onto the nearby railroad tracks.
