Our History
Conifer began as Bradford Junction back in the mid 1800s as a wagon trail for people going to the mountains to look for gold. The official name of Conifer came in 1900 when a new post office was built. Conifer history is recorded in "The Upper Side of the Pie Crust" by Margaret V. Bentley or "Mountain Memories" by Betty Moynihan and Helen E. Walters.
