CHICKASHA — Jim Cowan, executive director of the Chickasha Economic Development Council, has spent years promoting tourism in a city best known for its giant leg lamp.
That changed 18 months ago when a private developer joined city and state leaders to transform a mile-long road through a wheat field into the center of what they’re calling the “Oklahoma Land Run 2.0.”

Farming, for many, has always been considered a family business.

“It’s all hands on deck, that’s for sure,” said El Reno farmer Steve Jensen.
Jensen, along with brother, Peter and their sons, Carson, John David and Jack joined forces with family cousin, Mike Crowley. The group, including Crowley’s brother-in-law, Larry Schwarz, swarmed a field southwest of Heaston Church with two harvesters, support trucks and grain haulers.
