Century Farm Program
Inscription
In 1949, the Bradford County Historical Society, then located in the courthouse annex, initiated the first Century Farm program in Pa. Based on NY’s Order of Century Farmers, the program recognized farms that had been owned and operated by the same family for at least 100 years. In 1976, the Pa. Department of Agriculture adopted the society’s model and has since designated more than 2,000 Century and Bicentennial Farms throughout the state.
