Cherry Farm is a small acreage in between Loveland and Fort Collins, Colorado. My family moved here in 1951 from the Lamar-Granada-Bristol-Carlton area of SE Colorado. I bought the property from my Dad in 1987. Aside from the remaining farming, I've been working on several projects in the areas of home automation, energy efficiency, alternative energy and other interests. This web site is meant to organize and make visible those activities. Use the menu above to access those various areas.
