Centennial Farm commemorative book being planned

To commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Oklahoma Centennial Farm and Ranch program, the Oklahoma Historical Society is sponsoring a new book, “Oklahoma Centennial Farms & Ranches.”

The book will celebrate our centennial farms and ranches, and Oklahoma’s agricultural history.

All recipients of Oklahoma Centennial Farm and Ranch Awards are invited to share their stories.

Families are not required to purchase a book in order to be included.

To submit your family’s story, download the form found at www.okhistory.org/frbook.

The deadline for submission to be included in “Oklahoma Centennial Farms & Ranches” is Feb.

28.  

To qualify for a Centennial Farm or Ranch Award, a property must be owned by a family member for at least 100 years and must be operated or occupied by a family member or leased out by a family member.

The property must include a minimum of 40 acres and have gross annual sales of at least $1,000.
