Looking for the following:

Type of opportunity:

Sale (Standard), Sale (Owner Financed). More info: I have been leasing property in Mills River for the last five years. I am a high school math teacher with a passion for farming, especially flowers. I am currently on maternity leave with my three month old son and would love to have an opportunity to buy some land to make a flower farm and spend more time with my son as he grows. I have been selling at local tailgate markets for the last five years to make supplement pay with teaching salary. Given the chance to purchase some land I believe I could expand my flower farm and make this a career to better my family.

Equipment & infrastructure:

Barn, Greenhouse, Farm equipment, Irrigation equipment. More info: I would not need much to start my flower business but some nice land. I have access to farm equipment already. A barn, greenhouse, and irrigation equipment would be great additions but not necessary.

Current production on farm:

Field crops, Flowers, Herbs, Poultry (Broiler/Layer), Vegetable production.

Current farming practices:

Conventional.

Qualifications and goals:

Previous farming experience:

Employee, Manager

Number of years experience:

5

Production goals:

Flowers.
