Preserving the Past for the Present

Today's Date -- January 15, 2011

The Atkins-Johnson Farmhouse in Gladstone recently received the Preserve Missouri Award from Missouri Preservation. The award, one of only seven for the state of Missouri, was presented during a ceremony at the capitol building in Jefferson City.  The Friends of the Atkins-Johnson Farm and the City of Gladstone are working to restore the site to resemble a working farm from the early 1900s.
