Maple Springs Family Farm Reflects Old Fashioned Rural Life
In a cozy Maple Springs farmhouse Mrs. Breckbill and her husband oversee a family dairy with 19 grandchildren visiting. They discuss steady milk production about 10 pounds ahead of last year, and the farm’s careful pedigrees and records amid African Violets on the windowsill. Maple Springs stands as a refreshing counterpoint to the era’s farming expansion.
