Centennial Farms & Ranches
Sleepy Hollow
Elbert County
Michael and Anna Dzurovchin acquired the original property near Ramah, Colorado through the Homestead Act on November 15, 1904.
The crops raised by the farm included wheat, oats, barley, pinto beans, corn and potatoes. Pinto beans were a cash crop and provided the main source of income. They raised chickens, turkeys, hogs, cows, and horses. The family milked the cows both for their needs, and to sell cream at the market. Horses were used to farm until they were replaced by tractors in later years.
