Having decided to retire from farming, I have rented the farm land and will sell at Live Public Auction all listed items. I have commissioned Art Smith Auctioneers to conduct the Auction here on the farm. Thank you in advance, for attending my auction.
Very best regards, Albert Hackbardt
NOTE: This farm has been in the family for 4 generations and over 120 years.
Albert kept all his farm machinery in the sheds. Both the John Deere tractors had a complete maintenance check in the summer of 2014 at Volker’s in Big Rapids with new injectors installed in the 3020 diesel and both have been used very little since then. Many items from 120 years of family country living!! Albert also taught school in the Tri-County system for 33 years!
