About FarmHouse at Michigan State University

MSU FarmHouse was founded in MSU April 25, 1936. FarmHouse was created for a place where students with the common interest of agriculture or rural background could come together as one. The FarmHouse club at Michigan State University was formed in 1932 by a group of students and faculty members who were FarmHouse alumni. The club was an infant of the Depression, taking several years to charter. By the time the petition for a FarmHouse charter was accepted in 1936, the men ranked first in scholarship and held many prominent positions on campus.

Philanthropy Event: Pedal Pull

FarmHouse’s annual philanthropy events proceeds go to the American Diabetes Association. Every year FarmHouse invites sororities, fraternities, and various clubs/organizations on MSU campus to participate in a “pedal pull”. At this event teams compete by pedaling a pedal tractor pulling a weighted sled.
