Why this spot

1910s-1950s irrigation-era farm community

Farm settlement founded in the 1910s after dam projects opened the Magic Valley to irrigation, named for pioneers Annie Pike and Charles Greenwood. The school's closure in 1954 began its decline and the building of I-84 in the early 1960s split and effectively dissolved it.View source →
