My grandfather lived on and ran the family farm. It's been in our family for over 100 years, started as a business in 1909. It was my great grandfather that bought 200 acres in the late 1890's and built the original homestead by hand. The current house was built in 1909 and my cousin and his family live there now, that is and always will be, my grandma's house. The farm is still ran by two of my uncles and a few cousins. They milk about 125 holsteins and sell the milk to Land O Lakes. They have over 300 head of cattle though and chickens. They used to have pigs but got rid of them in the late 1990's. We still have pictures of my grandpa plowing the fields with a horse and plow

I love those stories.
My grandfather bought a 500a. Sugar Plantation in the late 1930's. He had been an electrician and union organizer and when he got sick, he realized there was nothing to leave to support his family. (BTW, family legend has it he knew NOTHING about growing sugar.) They made a go of it, probably helped that WWII drove sugar prices up at just the right time.
Another family legend says that during the War my grandmother (who was raised as a rich plantation girl, but married an electrician/ farmer) would get up early to drive an army truck down Bayou Lafourche to the POW camp to bring German prisoners back to work the farm.
My father was the youngest and all his siblings were leaving to start their families. When they started finding oil in that bend of the river, my Grandmother was terrified of how sudden wealth would have corrupted my father. A good Catholic, she prayed Novenas every night that they WOULDN'T find Oil. Well it worked. 80 years later they have still found no oil under that property.
It was sold recently and even though I hadn't been there in 20 years, I miss it already.
