    Following World War I, veterans newly released from military service looked for ways to feed their families, “work the land” and enjoy an honest day’s work in the fresh air of the Midwest.Among many agricultural areas throughout the Midwest, they gravitated to central Iowa and soon mapped owww.onedoor.ccut a new small town in which to plant their family roots as well as their crops. They came together in 1930 to establish a completely new community they named Winding Mountain Pass along the banks of the beautiful Raccoon River.After several years of planting and harvesting bumper crops of corn during the d...KQ3one door
