Water Access

There is a well pumping from a natural spring on-site and piped to the main processing facility/barn. There is currently no irrigation infrastructure beyond the connection to the barn.

Barns for Equipment/Storage

One large processing facility/barn with delivery truck bays, cement flooring, and which includes a working bathroom, office area, and storage segments. Ideal for wash-pack, processing, and/or distribution center. There's an older barn that can be repurposed for animal housing but would neeed a fair amount of work to get back in working shape.
