Condition & Current Use
This is a great multi use property with level flat driveway access on one side and natural barrier (shale and wooded hillside) on the other side of the property. There is a shared well for minimal usage and likelihood of a spring in the middle of the property, and a small creek at the base of the hill. There is one structure of uncertain condition. No fencing exists at present and it neighbors a horse farm.
Soil Types
Farm History & Past Use
This was a farmhouse with grazing land. The farmhouse has been demolished. The land was not used for grazing purposes but was a family home for at least 50 plus years.
Tenure Options
I believe that farming is important to our society but that not all people who want to farm have land to do so. I would like the land to contribute to someone's dream, while be useful to a community. Long term lease preferred. Open to partnership - I have experience managing projects of various sizes and have logistical experience that could be utilized in a farming business partnership.

Production Preferences
Livestock / Crops Description
In my limited knowledge, I would like things to either be grown here, or small animals (sheep, goats, chickens) to be raised for a small scale farming business-direct to consumer preferably. Open at this time but prefer low density of livestock so as not to deplete the land.
