Yesterday was a sad day we will not forget. Six generations lived on the Marsh farm (our kids included) - Walnut Grove Angus in Huntley. The barn stood proudly for 130 years but was erased in an instant on May 22, 2026. So many precious memories using that barn for our show cattle. The family sold the farm 2 years ago after Jim’s mom passed away but it still holds a special place in our hearts. 💕 The farm was in the Marsh family from 1853 - 2024.

In 2019, our farm was featured in an Angus Media documentary called LOSING GROUND (our story starts at the 19:15 mark but continues throughout): https://share.google/ZIluH7dLCNz2HgMeN

We are thankful to be able to look back on this documentary and see the farm as it was.

A special thank you to all the fire departments who came to help put the fire out!

(Note - we moved our cattle operation to Earlville in 2019. This post is about the farm Jim grew up on - not our current farm)
