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.

The goal of this farm is to become an educational center, to learn and share ecologically balanced practices that promote sustainable agricultural and conservation of natural resources. This is an opportunity for beginning farmers to explore, practice, and create their own self supporting, diversified enterprises. Two barns, a mix of hayfield, pasture, pond, and mountain top woods opens the land to many possibilities. The right farmer/s will be able to expand their own dream on this shared land which will be secured for future generations through a land trust with a supporting non-profit board.

We are looking to fill an organic vegetable position. We previously had an individual who farmed our land and developed a CSA with about 35 customers. His CSA customers may still be available. There are about 2 acres that he worked but more are available and there is water on this acreage. A shed is available for storage of equipment, but no housing is available. We are located in Avella PA about 35 miles south of Pittsburgh. We also have an area that we used to house about 250 organic layer chickens that is available. Land usage is free in exchange for vegetables/CSA share options. Owners are open to and have land available for other ideas in addition to vegetable production.
