Farm is currently idle/fallow with 60 acres flat and fertile ridgetop previously used for hay, another 60 acres rolling to steep mature woodland with a spring. Large blueberry orchard, mature walnut trees, and mature pawpaws. The goal is a retreat arboretum environment in which to tour native species with particular emphases on those with food and medicinal uses.

I am a local physician and landowner looking for a hands-on partner to co-develop a diversified regenerative orchard and homestead. The land is ready for thoughtful transformation – suited for tree crops, berries, livestock integration, and small-batch processing. I can provide: – secure long -term land access – help with infrastructure (fencing, irrigation, equipment) – startup capital and marketing support – flexible business structure (profit share, LLC, possible lease to own) You would bring: – experience in orchard or small farm management – time, energy, and practical skills to manage day-to-day operations – desire to build a livelihood rooted in stewardship, soil health, and community. Vision: To build a resilient, diversified farm producing high-quality perennial crops (pear, persimmon, elderberry, chestnut, etc.) and regenerative livestock systems. We’ll grow slowly, focus on soil and habitat health, and create products the community loves. This is an ideal fit for an aspiring or mid-career farmer seeking secure land tenure and partnership rather than employment.

Landowner #30196
20 acres of land that used to be farmed for hay. Not currently in production, but the acreage is cut once/year to maintain brush. A small stream and active spring are available on the property that can be used for irrigation. Currently there are no structures on the land, however, we are willing to build infrastructure to suit (lease only). There is a tractor available for use. We have plans to revive the land back into production through regenerative/permaculture practices and want to partner with like-minded farmers to help kickstart the process.

The “farmable” area – consists of about 20 acres of fenced pasture, the land is gently sloping, perfect for livestock production. Most of the property is forested and in conservation easement (which does allow limited timber and firewood harvesting). Buildings and infrastructure include: a large spring-fed pool, the tractor shed (20′ x 30′ timber frame), the 1-2 bedroom farmhouse, my 86 year old mother’s home, a large converted barn that serves as a summer rental, the workshop (another 20′ x 30′ timber frame that is insulated and heated), the 7 stall working barn, and the equipment shed (20′ x 50′ timber frame lean-to) – which is not included in the conservation easement. This farm has been in our family since the early 1900s. My grandfather became a “gentleman” farmer after retiring and raised chickens and turkeys. That infrastructure is long gone and the “farming” we’ve done since then has consisted of large gardens, small scale maple syrup, and nearly 50 years of small scale beef production (3-4 head a year). The future of the farm is unclear. My mother would like to stay there as long as she can and is quite capable of handling a lot of the property maintenance on her own. I live out of state and typically spend about a week each month on the property helping with maintenance and the inevitable “special projects” that pop up…e.g. dealing with the aftermath of the Emerald Ash Borer or replacing the barbed wire fence with hi-tensile electric. We’d like to find a farmer or farmers – maybe a couple with one working off-farm until their farm plan has time to mature – to come pursue their dream and, in the process, help us maintain and improve the property. Leasing to own isn’t out of the question, but not something we can guarantee at this point. The farmers could take over the small beef cattle operation, raise other small livestock, produce eggs, add high tunnels/green houses (likely with our financial support), bring in school groups or ecotourists, raise native plants, expand the maple syrup operation, raise honey bees, sell firewood, selectively harvest and sell rough cut lumber…it seems to us there are all sorts of things the farm could support.
