Farmers Market Opportunity at Darkhorse Farms

• Vegetable - 1-2 acres currently used for vegetables or have garlic/asparagus and a few fruit trees growing
• Livestock - Horse Boarding and training facility is run on the property. There is a possibility to have a flock of chickens.
• Hay & Forage - 6 acres in hay

We have a lot of sandy soil here that is currently being improved with composted horse manure which there is plenty. There are some good south facing surfaces with easily accessible water to expand growing areas.

This is a running horse boarding and training facility on a total of 17 acres. There is 2 to 4 acres of usable land for vegetables, chickens, fruit trees to expand or continue as a farmers market business that has already to some degree been established. For the 2021 season there is garlic planted, asparagus, and some fruit trees. We also had a list of preserves, soap and sourdough bread that was represented at some good markets as well as some customers already coming to the farm. Depending we also have the opportunity to run a flock of chickens with chicken coups and runs already established.

My horse business is fully up and running but I like to have a responsible use for the composted horse manure and feel as I own land providing food is the responsibility of everyone. Looking for a harmonious partnership with one or two other entrepreneurs that would join in that vision. There are a couple of different living arrangement options on the land.

• Vegetable - asparagus, garlic and anything else that can be imagined.
• Livestock - Chickens or other bird flocks.
• Orchard/Fruit - Apple and plum trees are planted here

• Texture - Sandy soil that we have been improving with composted horse manure
• Sloping - Both south and north exposures.
• Good drainage -

• Lease -
