Vision for the Farm

Nature and Nurture Farm is looking to lease a portion or several portions of its 130 acres. There are lots of options - a hay farmer, an organic field crop grower, an incubator farm area with a 1/2 acres fenced and irrigated, barn storage for vehicles, farm equipment, or hay, heated or unheated hoophouse space, cattle or sheep grazing - many options available.
