Description: After a decade farming in rural Platteville, Wisconsin, Wilson J. Boldt joined Andrew Brothers in Platteville in a dual role as both farm and seed house manager in 1944. In 1947, he set out on his own by founding County Seedmen, and specializing in selling certified seeds and fertilizers to local farmers. Certified seeds are important to farmers as they are produced under strict seed certification standards to maintain varietal purity. Seed lots must also meet specified standards for other crops, inert matter, weed seeds, and germination. Boldt ran County Seedmen until selling it in 1968 to Dick Swart, who continued to operate County Seedmen for another 20 years until he retired.
