The Tennessee Century Farms Program identifies and honors those farms which
have been under the ownership of the same family for at least 100 years.
Special distinction is made for farms that have been under the ownership of
the same family for 150 years and 200 years.
We are proud to have three Century Farms in Portland and several others nearby in
the county.
