Farm description
We purchased the property 2 years ago from a family who owned it for almost a century. The property has 13 acres that has been farmed commercially which was stopped last year and the field has been allowed to rest. The other 3 farmable acres use to be the growing operation for a Farm Market that the family operated. The Soil and property is beautiful and we are looking to transition to a regenerative and organic farm.
Farm opportunity
We are looking for someone with passion and experience to transition our property into an organic producing farm including berries, fruit trees, vegetables, livestock, herbs and wild flowers. Ideally the candidate will share in our passion to live naturally and create the absolute best and most nutritious food possible.
