Who makes bricks today? See many varieties in the mega home stores. Are there similar deposits of clay in the area? Was the demise of the company a lack of raw material or a changed marketplace? Thanks for responding to questions. I am so intrigued by your sense of history and dedication to a personal passion. Sharing is a dedication in its own right, but the effort is definitely appreciated.
I am think I hauled a load of dry pulverized clay out of here in the early 90's in a pneumatic tank I drove a 1994 Peterbilt day cab with 8'' pipes and all the chicken lights I slept over night across the seats with my feet hanging out the window I can't remember where I delivered it that was a long tome ago great video thanks have a great day be safe.
I bought bricks here back in the late 1990s & bricked up a window opening on the old nursing home in Tracy, Mn. I think I bought about 90 brick & hauled them back on a 6’x10’ trailer. They were very good bricks. To bad they’re closed now. They matched really well to the existing bricks. The old nursing home is now an apartment building.
Wow... More than a few dollars worth of bricks still in inventory! It looks like everyone just put down their tools and walked away. 😢 BTW - How many wood ticks did you pick up during that stroll through the weeds? 😅
Most house's of the 80's had brick or some sort and often masonery fire place fully bricked, grew less and less and i think after 2006 or so now rarely see brick, it's all so called phony stone now. Sad. I remember the ochs brick trucks delivering out of the eden prairie yard

There's a brick making factory in Hebron North Dakota. I have a souvenir bricklet from a bicycle tour called CANDISC when we stayed a night there.
Buen trabajo. Good job.

You should do a video on Laura Ingalls Wilder. She lived in Walnut Grove, Mn. Then headed west to South Dakota, T.

They certainly have a lot of bricks left there.
