Additional Information

Description

The farm has been growing hay for the past two years. Close to downtown Northampton and the airport this property offers an opportunity to develop CSA or other uses. Mature apple and pear tree. Area ready for grill setup and customer activities. This could be a great pick-your -own fruit or flower location. Very successful strawberry farm close by.

As stated the well water has too much salt for irrigation so it would make sense to build a rain water containment system to supplement. The area is considered to have some of the best soils in the state and other farmers in the area have successful farms using the water mother nature provides.

Owner is selling due to distance from home and other business ventures.

 

Willing to owner finance with, 10% down payment, for up to 20 years. I will work with anyone that has farming experience and the energy to build this property up
