Esther Dahlquist has sold the farm and moved into a retirement apartment; therefore she has decided to sell, at public auction, items listed. There are a few items from a local resident that have been added to round out this nice country auction.
NOTE: Folks, this is a multi-generational country auction held out on the farm. There are many items from the past. The upstairs and outbuildings of this old farmstead are loaded with collectibles from a lifetime of country living. Make plans to be in northern Kent County for the start of this country auction on Thursday afternoon at 4PM.
SPECIAL NOTE: There will be no street parking, everyone please park in the field to the north of the house. For your convenience, lunch wagon, port-a-jon and wash-up station.
