<br />In 1760, Christopher Pless, George, Sr's Great, Great, Great, Great, Grandfather received <br />a land grant from King George IV. He purchased additional adjoining land in what is <br />now north central Cabarrus County. Pless Dairy is today located on and fanns part of that <br />land. It has been continuously owned and fanned by the Pless family. The fann has been <br />named a Century Farm Family by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture. <br /> <br />The fann was on the Farin Business records system with NCSU for many years. Today <br />the dairy works closely with an accountant to manage the daily business of the fann. The <br />fann has participated in the NCSU Dairy Fann Financial Performance Project. <br /> <br />For all these reasons and more, George L. Pless, Sr. and Sons Dairy, Inc. is the worthy <br />recipient of the 2005 Senger Distinguished Dairy Fanner Award. Congratulations to the <br />Pless family. <br /> <br />Q-'J.. <br />
