235 years ago my Great Grandfather, Joseph Warren, took a stand for a new form of government called democracy...and proudly stood on Bunker Hill when the British charged and ultimately gave his life for our freedom during that battle.

235 years later I am proud to say this family is still here...

We're still farming...

And we are still free!

To all the men and women of Maine and Massachusetts Bay Colony, who laid down their lives, or were willing to in defense of freedom and democracy, I personally thank you...on this special day, the true birth date of freedom.
