Our great-grandfather, Hilary Kiesler, and his family immigrated from Bremen, Germany, in 1891. He established his blacksmith trade at our current location. The original building he worked out of is now known as the “pumpkin house.” From those early beginnings, the farm quickly evolved into a grain-and-dairy operation.
