Morgan Farm Field

The specific reason for closure is not officially documented, which is common for small, private airfields. As a private 'farm field', the closure was most likely a decision by the property owner. This could have been due to the owner no longer flying, the sale of the land, or the desire to repurpose the land for more profitable agricultural use. There is no evidence to suggest it was closed due to a specific accident, military conversion, or urban development pressure at the time.

The site of the former airport has been fully reclaimed for agricultural purposes. An analysis of current satellite imagery at the coordinates reveals that the area of the former north-south runway is now an active tree farm or plant nursery, with dense, organized rows of trees covering the length of the old airstrip. No remnants of aviation infrastructure, such as hangars or runway markers, are visible. The land is privately owned and actively cultivated.

Morgan Farm Field was a small, private-use airfield with local, rather than national, significance. Its primary purpose was likely to support the agricultural operations of the farm it was on, potentially for crop dusting, and for the personal recreational use of its owner. The airfield first appeared on aeronautical charts around 1970. The 1982 AOPA Airports USA Directory described it as having a single 2,600-foot unpaved turf runway, noting there were 'Crops on & adjacent to runway,' which confirms its integration with farming activities. It represents a typical example of the thousands of private farm strips that were common across rural America in the latter half of the 20th century.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Morgan Farm Field. The land is being used for commercial agriculture, and the cost to clear the trees and re-establish an airstrip would be substantial. As a privately owned property, any initiative to reopen would have to come from the landowner, and there is no public indication of such an interest.
