Help us celebrate Platteville’s agricultural heritage! 🌾 If you know of a Century Family Farm within the Platteville School District—continuously family-owned for 100+ years—please contact Kathy Kopp at [email protected] or 608-642-9227 to be included in Platteville’s 200th Commemorative Book.

Be sure to follow the Bicentennial Celebration page for future updates and information.

Platteville’s Bicentennial Committee is looking to capture all of the Century Family farms that continue to be in existence within the Platteville School District. Knowing that agriculture is a mainstay for our community, and the fact that a number of our small family farms continue to play an integral part in our economy and way of life, we would like to showcase and celebrate them in Platteville’s 200th Commemorative coffee-table book which will become available early in 2027.

If you have a family farm within the Platteville School District, or know of such a family farm, that has been consistently owned for 100 years or more, please contact Kathy Kopp at [email protected] or 608-642-9227.
