Farmhouses Sign

The sixteen-mile strip of Missouri River bottom land from above Chamois, Missouri, to below Morrison, Missouri, was once populated with many farmhouses that sheltered the families living the American Dream of Farming. Now, only a few are left. The Mighty Missouri has had her way. Sharing the stories, pictures and histories of these families and their homes, FARMHOUSES is a recollection and a collection of the many who lived the dream, fought the river, and survived to tell about it. More than 100 Missouri River Bottom folks-- both past and present--have contributed to this work. Work was hard, shared, most times successful, sometimes not.
