"2017 Gasconade County Century Farms
MU Extension, MU College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources, and the Missouri Farm Bureau jointly sponsor the Missouri Century Farm program. Local MU Extension Councils help with sponsorship by publicizing the program, collecting and certifying nominations, and arranging for local recognition. Extension Publications, part of the office of Extension and Agricultural Information, coordinates the program. In 2017, three Gasconade County farm families were recognized as Century Farms:
• Tonya & John Fadler – William & Charlotte Fleer (great-great grandparents of Tonya) established November 10, 1880 • Curtis W. Frolker – Oscar W. Frolker (grandfather) established in 1917 • Ray Wacker – August H. Wacker (great grandfather) established in 1869" ~ University of Missouri
