We have 11 acres of hilly grassland with a large flat area that we’ve made the garden. There are two wetlands, springs that feed them, and two creeks on either side of the property. We’ve added a lot since we moved here - power & WiFi, a solar powered well, got a septic authorization permit, dug out a 700 foot swale and berm that we planted with young asparagus, perennials, and fruit and nut trees, built a dry stone retaining wall, etc. It’s very much the start of a farm. There is a lot of wildlife, pollinators, and quiet neighbors.

A 2021 Forest River Vibe 25RK camper with rooftop solar is included in the sale and is in great used condition. Other features include a dry-stone retaining wall, a solar-powered well at the property's highest point, hoses serving the camper's water reservoir and garden, a garden shed, and two small chicken coops with movable fencing. A 700-foot swale and berm is planted with fruit and nut trees, medicinal plants, and asparagus.
Current production on farm
Production details
We have 5 established garden beds in the garden, two raised beds by the camper, and a large swale. The garden beds have a small blueberry patch, an asparagus patch, two young elderberries, and some perennials like cone flower, baptisia, etc. There are young paw paws planted on the edge of the garden. The swale has a small asparagus patch, medicinals, perennials, young fruit and nut trees, and potential to plant many more. The raised beds by the camper are for annuals, and there is a mulched bed behind that has more perennials, fruit, and nuts trees. We have laying chickens as well - 13 chickens in total.

Opportunity details
We are looking to sell the start of our farm to someone who will care for what’s already here. We are open to a lease to own option but would need to work out details with the right person. Our property is 8 minutes from downtown Marshall, has a solar powered well, two creeks, two springs, a swale planted out with bare root fruit and nut trees, a beautiful dry stone wall at the entrance, and perennial and native beds with asparagus and blueberry patches. We have great neighbors, and there is a good bit of bike traffic for those interested in a farm stand.
