1 acre of land for farm lease

Located in Vancouver Island & Gulf Islands Bbe2d6a0 2b53 49f5 af00 5d8e0fb36dba
Located on a 6.5-acre property in North Saanich, this 1-acre plot offers fertile land currently used for hay and is well-suited for growing vegetables, flowers, or for beekeeping. The site includes city water at agricultural rates, partial fencing, and a newly constructed garden stand with power for on-site farm-gate sales. The landholders, who are producing eggs and mixed vegetables in their new garden this season, are keen to share the land with a responsible and respectful farmer. This is an excellent leasing opportunity for growers looking to establish or expand their farm business.
