Atlantic Area Chamber Ambassadors Visit Imagine at Zellmer Century Farm
October 6th, 2023 by Ric Hanson
(Atlantic, Iowa) – The Atlantic Chamber Ambassadors visited with Sue Liston, owner of Imagine at Zellmer Century Farm on Thursday, October 5th, 2023, to view the recent improvements to the Garden/ Gift Store.
Sue Liston and her husband took ownership of the family farm in early 2021 when Sue’s mother passed away. Sue has many fond memories of the farm and wanted to share the unique farm experience with those that visit. Since 2021, the couple has built a greenhouse that houses the many pre-made terrariums, fair gardens, planters, and other gift items Sue has for sale. Other additions to the farm include a new porch on the greenhouse, a fire pit, picnic area, and five new gardens which include a sunflower garden, vegetable garden, and cut-flower garden.
Sue plans to build a bridge around the pond on the property which will begin the next phase of additions which include rentable cabins. Sue’s goal for the entire property is to create an “oasis” where visitors can enjoy the beautiful scenery for just a few hours or, eventually, an overnight stay. Sue has hosted many different groups at her farm, providing them with a beautiful chance to relax and enjoy each other’s company or even a team bonding activity building terrarium or fairy gardens.
Imagine is located at 57053 Highland Road outside of Atlantic and is open, Thursdays 11AM-6PM, Fridays 10AM-6PM, and Saturdays 10AM-1PM. Imagine is also available by appointment.
