This inquisitive rooster posed for me at his humble home at the Historical Kelly Farm, Elk River, Minnesota.
The Kelly Farm was built in 1849 and is an actual historic working farm from the 1970s. Visitors can actually participate in the farm chores of harvesting and planting with historically accurate tools and equipment like oxen and horses. The horses are actually being bred back to a similar Morgan breed, accurate to the era. The Kelly Farm belonged to Oliver Kelly who was an innovative farmer and entrepreneur. Oliver Kelly is responsible for founding the Grange, the first successful national organization of farmers. The Kelly farm is operated by the Minnesota Historical Society. It is a stunningly beautiful place.
