About Morris Meadows

The concept of Morris Meadows developed from Sid Morris’ love of the country tranquility which restored his energy after a grueling week in the business world. 

It was his belief that others who did not have the opportunity for such a retreat on a working farm may enjoy the same tranquility he did.

Hence was born the concept of a small business and seminar center where one company or firm could afford to rent this “Country Club” setting and thus have their energy restored by its tranquility.

 

The Farm was originally purchased by George Morris, Sid Morris father, the first part of the 1900’s.  George Morris was later joined by his brother Ted.  They had immigrated from England, where their father operated a farm and racing stables.

 They farmed together for a few years until Ted left to pursue his career as a mechanic.

George continued farming.  He later married Evelyn Bergstrom.

 

Sid has tried to preserve those early days if the rural farm community in the construction

of the premises.

The interior of the lodge contains memorabilia from the early days of the community,

both in pictures and articles.  The Lodge also reflects the elegance of modern rural life,

while not forgetting its past.
