Stewart Farms Airport

The specific reason for closure is not publicly recorded, which is common for a private airfield. Given its direct association with a farm, the closure was almost certainly due to private circumstances. Likely reasons include the sale of the farm, the owner (who was likely the pilot) retiring from flying or passing away, or a change in farm operations that rendered a private airstrip economically or logistically unnecessary (e.g., outsourcing aerial application services).

The airport is permanently closed and no longer exists as an aviation facility. The land where the north-south grass/dirt runway was located has been fully reclaimed for agricultural purposes. Current satellite imagery shows the area is part of a larger cultivated field, with visible plow and crop lines running over the former airstrip. Some of the original farm buildings to the east, one of which may have served as a hangar, are still standing and appear to be in use for general farm storage.

Stewart Farms Airport was a private-use airfield with no official FAA identifier; 'US-10928' is an unofficial catalog number from a non-governmental database. Its significance was entirely local, serving as an operational base for Stewart Farms. Its primary purpose was likely agricultural aviation (crop dusting, seeding, and spraying) for the farm's extensive crops. It may also have been used for the personal and business transportation of the farm's owners and for recreational flying. It never handled commercial, cargo, or public passenger operations.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Stewart Farms Airport. The land has been fully converted back to agricultural production, and re-establishing an airstrip would require significant investment and a renewed operational need from the current landowner. It is considered permanently closed.
