Century Farms

Managed By:

Century Farms

Description:: Photograph and waymark Century Farms and Ranches that have been owned and continue to be operated by direct descendants of the same family for at least 100 years.

Expanded Description:

Century Farms and Ranches (Century Farms for short) can be found in many countries across the world (Canada, USA, Australia and New Zealand to name a few). Each geopolitical entity or organization may have its own criteria for recognizing and designating a farm or ranch as a Century Farm. Some, but not all, Century Farms receive physical markers.

As these farms are typically located on private property – do not trespass.

For the purposes of this category, a Century Farm must meet three criteria:

Direct descendants of the same family must have owned the farm or ranch for at least 100 years (an incorporated farm or ranch is eligible if it meets this regulation).
A family member must still be living on the farm or ranch, and it must be in active operation within the family as a farm or ranch.
There must be tangible proof that the farm or ranch has received such designation. This may take the form of a physical marker such as a plaque, post, etc. or a link to a website that specifies that the farm or ranch meets the first two criteria listed above.

Examples of Century Farm markers:


Ontario Century Farm Marker	Iowa Century Farm Marker	Tennessee Century Farm Marker

Examples of Century Farm websites:

Michigan Centennial Farms, even those already listed as waymarks in their own category, are eligible for inclusion in this category.

Instructions for Posting a Century Farms Waymark:

To post a Century Farm Waymark, find a Century Farm and provide its co-ordinates. In the Waymark title please consider including the name of the farm and the geopolitical area in which the farm is located, e.g. Smith Century Farm, Uxbridge – ON. Provide a full-frame image of the Century Farm marker if there is one, OR a link to a website that provides proof that the farm has received such recognition. Provide a second image of the farm and if it exists, its marker. Please fill in as many of the variables as possible.

Instructions for Visiting a Waymark in this Category:

To log a visit to a Century Farm provide proof of your physical visit - no virtual visits please. Proof can be in the form of an original photo that you have taken of the Century Farm including its marker if it has one, or a description of the farm and of your visit. Any additional information that you can provide about the farm is always welcome.
