Pace: Three Oaks FarmThe farm has been owned by the Thompson family for 40 years. It has been a homestead since the early 20th century according to dates in the family graveyard on the property. Adjoining parcels are owned by members of the family. The giant oak trees by the house are among the largest in the area, estimated at 250 years in age.
