After his death, Bertal and Edna Wickstrom continued to expand the operation, and in 1965 Donald and Patricia returned to the farm as did their sons Cary and Todd after college. Now Cary’s daughters, Lara and Leigha, along with Leigha’s husband Andrew Martens, are involved with the agricultural operation for the 5th generation, growing wheat, mullet, corn and feed cattle on the 320 acres.
