The Garcia Farm dates back to 1862 when Pedro Garcia bought 19 acres of land near Gardner in Huerfano County. In 1876 he added 160 acres through homesteading, with his son, Catedra, later adding 292 acres to the farm. Catedra divided his land between 3 of his 13 children. His grandson, Augustine, eventually inherited the tract of land that included the original homestead. Today, Augustine's children, Ray and Alfred, run the 420 acre farm where they raise hay and cattle.
