Condition & Current Use

This property was used as a nursery in the previous years, mostly growing pacaysandra and distributing online. What makes this property unique is that it has it own water source, a running Pond on the property and it was used to run irrigation through the property for the plants.. It has a barn and several other structures in need of some repair. There is a steel frame commercial greenhouse and the land is pretty level. There is enormous potential to run a successful business. I am willing to run a farmstand, csa and events on the property . It is in a very good location and wouldbe a great to utilize the property for the community. I'm looking to for a farmer to utilize this property property resources and potential for the community as well as running a successful business. willing to work out some type of leasing arrangement or possible partnership.
