Carlos Avery Game Farm
Carlos Avery Game Farm, Historic game farm in Linwood Township, United States
The Carlos Avery Game Farm contains eleven colonial-style buildings spread across the administrative center of a wildlife management area in Minnesota.
The Minnesota Department of Conservation purchased 8,478 acres from the Crex Carpet Company in 1933 to establish this wildlife refuge and breeding facility.
The facility pioneered large-scale wildlife management efforts in Minnesota through breeding programs for quail, pheasants, and partridges until the early 1980s.
The wildlife management area currently maintains a 4,500-acre sanctuary closed to hunting, while permitting recreational activities in other sections.
The Works Progress Administration funded 85 percent of the initial $40,887 construction project, which included specialized buildings for bird incubation.
