For over a century, a Sturgeon County farm has been a gathering place for community picnics, card games, and, at one time, a refuge for military families
In July 2024, the Eva Scragg Berg family gathered once again to celebrate the farm’s 103rd anniversary.
After returning from service in the First World War, Eva’s father, Ralph Scragg, purchased the 138-acre River Lot 62 along the Sturgeon River, believing it ideal for raising a family and running a mixed farm.
The farm became home to his 10 children, including Eva, who was born in the two-story farmhouse in 1936.
