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.

The property is 12.5 acres with a single-family home where landowners live. It is our wish to create an opportunity for an experienced farmer to utilize 6 of the 12.5 acres to establish a working farm. Our focus would be an organic and sustainable operation with a special focus on marketable plants that are native to the Americas, such as sunflowers. We also believe that the land could be ideal for growing either table grapes or wine grapes. We are open to either.

Landowner #30198
Approximately 10 acres available for consideration. Currently used for hay production. Our goal is to look into potential uses for the land that may produce retirement income for my wife and I. Options considered include: leasing the land, selling the land, partner with an experienced farmer to produce income for the partnership, production of peonies. Land is adjacent to a lot that includes our former home that was sold 6 years ago. We lived there for 25 years and renovated the house and other buildings.

2.14 acres with a metal pole barn that was built-in 1994, perfect for raising livestock. Acreage is partially wooded. No home on the property. The building is 2800 square feet 40×70. The roof and gutters were new in August of 2023. It is a 40-year still roof. The front of the building was redone in the fall of 2022. The electrical service was put in in September 2019. There is a small pigeon pan on the bill on the property. It could also be used for chickens. The property is very secluded and private.

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.

Recently purchased an 18 acre parcel of farmland. Looking for an ambitious person to lead the effort toward a successful sustainable farm. The land has been leased in the past but has been fallow for 2 seasons. I believe the previous tenants grew corn or beans or both.

Farmland is currently in hay fields. Total land including woodland is 56 acres with 20 of that being farmland. At one time it was a dairy farm, but the barn has been converted out of dairy production to equipment storage. This is a 4th generation farm and is enrolled in the farmland preservation program. My family lives in the farmhouse and there are 2 rental houses available on the property that could be rented to a farmer/tenant.
