There are two potential production areas on this property. The first is the sloped area along side the greenhouse in the feature photo- this is the site of the previous owner's existing vegetable garden and the current owners have plans to expand it by removing the trees east of the plot and terracing the sloped area to create additional beds. The existing greenhouse, which is approximately 10 ft x 20ft and propane heated, is also available for a grower looking for a bit of heated space to start seedlings or cultivate hot house crops in containers. The second spot available on this property is the existing orchard found along the southwest edge of the property. In addition to orchard space, this part of the property also has a wooded grove where the previous owner had raised laying hens.
The previous owner of this property was an avid homesteader who kept a garden, laying hens, and a small orchard. The current owners are excited to see these spaces come back to life with care from an experienced and passionate grower and are willing to collaborate on projects, such as terracing the northern slope south of the greenhouse to create new garden beds.
The landholders would love to see this space fully utilized to grow food or flowers for their surrounding community! They'd love to support a new grower looking for a small space to grow food and are also excited to offer space for a farm stand. Above all, these folks value reciprocity, communication, and hard-work and are looking to connect with farmers who share these values.
