Another friendship story we want to highlight here at 29 Acres is that of Sawyer and Patriot. Sawyer and Patriot met while becoming housemates at 29 Acres. They became friends over their shared interest in cars and trucks. They love playing video games together in the house and going to race RC cars. Patriot's favorite outing is going to the arcade, while Sawyer's is going to Andretti's. Finding community is what 29 Acres is all about, and we love seeing our clients find friendships.
