This property is a historic farm in Wayne County, Pennsylvania, located in the rural community of Lake Ariel in the Pocono region. The property encompasses approximately 150 acres, including approximately 90 acres of mixed woodland and 60 acres of open agricultural land consisting primarily of established pasture and fields, with the remainder consisting of the farmstead, roads, and other non-agricultural areas. The farm has a long agricultural history and retains a substantial traditional farmstead, including a two-story dairy barn, farmhouse, workshop barn, and additional storage structures. The dairy barn contains 18 livestock stalls, a large hayloft, tack room, former milk room, graded manure area, water, and electrical service. The barn is fundamentally sound but requires some maintenance and modernization the owners will be completing. The owners are interested in establishing a long-term relationship with an independent farmer who can make productive use of the property while maintaining and improving its agricultural and ecological resources. They are open to different agricultural models rather than seeking to prescribe a particular farm enterprise. The owners are also willing to consider cost-sharing on appropriate infrastructure investments that support the long-term viability of the farm, with specific improvements and cost-sharing arrangements to be discussed with the selected farmer. The available land provides flexibility for a diversified operation. Potential enterprises could include livestock grazing, pastured poultry, market gardening, perennial crops, orchards, agroforestry, forest farming, and other complementary agricultural enterprises. Depending on the operator’s interests and applicable regulations, the property may also offer opportunities for agritourism or educational activities. The approximately 90 acres of woodland provide additional opportunities for forestry, wildlife habitat, recreation, maple production, forest farming, and potentially silvopasture. The woodland is primarily hardwood, with a significant softwood component in the northeastern portion of the property. The property ranges from approximately 1,370 to 1,581 feet in elevation and has detailed 3-foot contour mapping available. The varied topography creates a range of landscape positions that can be matched to different agricultural and forestry uses. A detailed site assessment is available to interested candidates.

Farm is currently idle, with hopes to bring on new or experienced farmers to lease land. Historically was a small-scale dairy and beef outfit. Fields were used for a mix of cattle grazing and corn/grain silage growing. Willing to lease farm in smaller plots to multiple farmers. Cattle were on land until the late 70s and 80s. Current farm infrastructure includes large pole barn, maintenance garage, and old cow barn. They are used for storage and maintenance of existing property. Fields are currently fallow, being mowed once or twice a year. The intention is to use existing fields and irrigation ponds to grow vegetables, fruit trees, and small amounts of row crops to make better use of the land. Tractors and farm machinery are on site and thus the leasing farmer would be able to use them if needed. There are also irrigation ponds, which could be used in the future as well. Business method does not need to be restrictive as long as farming methods are using regenerative and low-till methods, without the use of harsh chemicals. We are looking for a farmer partner who would be willing to work around other projects going on the property

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.

27 tillable acres with approx. 5 acres of woods. Following organic standards since 2002 but not certified. 2.5 acres have been used for mixed vegetable crops in recent years. 2 acres were used for rotating laying hens and broilers. The remaining acreage has been fallow for several years. Farm sale outlets include CSA, farmers markets and specialty wholesale. We have also hosted high-end farm to table dinners. This land has been stewarded by the same family for 100 years and has had small scale dairy, beef cattle and grain production in the past. The current generation is ready to provide a new family the opportunity to establish, grow and create their own history on this well-loved land. Location and surrounding community are exceptional for sales of premium farm products, agritourism, and farm / nature-based education programs.
