Vision for the Farm
Looking for a farmer interested in urban space. Preferably some interested in cooperation with local community organizations to do education and outreach.
Past/Current Land Usage
Acreage description
Urban farm. 1/3 loam, 2/3 clay. Farm is wet, but doesn't flood. I have about 500 apple rootstock of different flavors planted in mounds, and I am in the process of experimenting with native crab Apple (M. Coronaria, m. Fusica) and other wet tolerant plants. Hedgerows on three sides have been cleared of invasive shrubs and tree (fuck you, buckthorn!).
Description of the property’s current condition, current use(s), and past use(s)
Property doesn't have power, water, storage, etc. I am pursuing equip grants for hedgerows and greenhouse.
Imagine mud. Like a lot of it. Then more mud.
3rd year of soil in red clover, composted wood chips and lawn grass, 14 acres in native plants.
Additional Information
Organic and regen practice only. I'm not a fanatic, but nothing my granddaughter can't play in.
Soil Type(s)
Tappen Loam complex, wet, compacted, been a farm since 1874.
Transition Agreement
Farm Seeker/Farm Owner Partnership, Lease, Mentorship, Working arrangement with future partner
I'm looking for someone who can use the land to feed and educate people. I'm hoping to receive a small part of the products for personal consumption. I can provide a lease for 2-15 years.
