“Put your money in the land.” -Ann Stanton, Irish Immigrant
My great-great grandmother came to this country with her sister from in Ireland 🍀 She fell in love with and told her family and friends to invest in the land 🌾 and we are still here today! So often land that is inherited is quickly sold and subdivisions and strip malls are built upon ground that was once home and farmland for generations before it. I watched this happen as a child growing up in Hikes Point. We played for years in the cow fields of the farm across the street, then watched it turn into a golf course within a years time. Now I’m not opposed to progress or growth, but as I watch the same thing happening now as an adult I realize how precious and rare it is when the new generation decides to forgo selling and works the land or shares it with others in some form. I want to take this as an opportunity to thank a special lady that inherited a .lagrange.quarry and instead of selling, poured her money, heart, soul, sweat, and tears into a that she shares with all of us!! So cheers to and and especially to those who continue to invest in and care for come experience it for yourself 💦🌾 https://www.frp-lagrangequarry.com
