Seeking
- 6-10 Total acres

- 0-5 Acres of pasture
Desired locations
We are an indoor hydroponic micro family farm. We are looking for land we can live/grow on!
Plan
Currently I grow out of my former garage as I am very limited in outdoor space. I grow and sell mushrooms and micro greens and a number of value add products at my local farmers market. I keep a small flock of chickens and ducks in my backyard, and a small Herb garden in my front yard. I would love to expand everything to have more farm offerings so that I can store my family year-round through the farming business.
Desired infrastructure
Equipment and infrastructure details
Anything that can help me tend to the land more effectively and easily. I have experience driving certain large pieces of equipment, I enjoy building and have worked in landscaping before so I am familiar with a lot of concepts and equipment in that regard
Preferred type of opportunity
Opportunity details
Looking for any land to use to expand my farmers market offerings. Would ideally love to live on/near the lands, am willing to rent out my home and live on/near farm land but this would include my family as well.
Desired farming practices
Practices details
Taking good care of any land I grow on, taking good care of any animals I raise, taking good care of any plants I grow. Sustainable/regenerative farming and has always been my goal. Teaching the next generations about good land stewardship.
