Trucks and More
As many of you know, Minter’s Farm is a home for all things rusty. Some things run and some things sit. But all things here have a sentimental value that makes them irreplaceable.

Rusty Relics: If these old trucks could talk…
If you never got to know the late Clarence Betsill, the man who created the popular liquor still exhibit at Inman Farm Heritage Days, you missed a real treasure. He was a simple man – a mechanic, farmer and yes, a moonshiner. And he was one of smartest,...
