The Borchart family has run a long history here in New Germany, MN. Since 1856 when Jim Borchart’s ancestors homesteaded, they have been on this very plot of land ever since. Running operations from farming, to a creamery business, and finally establishing themselves in the steel repurposing industry. On Thursday, October 18th, 2018, we held an auction for the company to sell its industrial machinery and any engines, tools and other items recovered from previous job sites. With two rings, just under 1,000 lots, and the sun finally coming out, it made for a big day.

Despite crop prices that are below the breakeven point for many farmers, quality farmland is holding up surprisingly well. That may provide an opportunity for farmers and investors to lock in their long-term gains, according to Tim Meyer, Steffes representative based in Iowa.
