Here's your chance to live the life you've always dreamed of! Enjoy the freedom to come and go as you please, work in harmony with nature, take pride in growing delicious fruit, and hunt trophy bucks and ducks right in your own backyard. This is an opportunity you don't want to miss! Built in 1997 this 39.5 acre cranberry marsh features Stevens vines, underground irrigation, ample water via the Little Lemonweir River, excellent yields, and as an independent grower, multiple marketing options. This is a very modern marsh designed to make your marsh manager's job easier while saving you money. The Joe Lord frost and moisture system allows you to manage the irrigation system automatically, or literally from your phone on the recliner! A clay base in this area helps reduce the costs of nitrogen inputs required for maximum yields. With no other cranberry marshes above, the water is very clean and insect pressure very low. Drain tile in all the beds provides an efficient way of removing excess moisture. Harvest is faster and efficient due to a designed elevation difference from one side of the marsh to the other allowing gravity to speed up the flood process. Harvest and other growing-related equipment is available. A built-in redundant pumping system gives you peace of mind while a 220 hp 855 Cummings natural gas pump delivers all the water you need at a fraction of the cost of other fuels. There is additional land available to establish new plantings. A cold storage building along with a 60x100' insulated shop is on site. A full array of equipment is available to operate the marsh. Seller financing may be available to qualified buyers. In addition to the business opportunities this property offers, there is a surplus of recreational activities to keep you busy. Two separate reservoirs and the Little Lemonweir River offer a surplus of fishing throughout the year. These bodies of water also draw in ducks and geese throughout the year for excellent waterfowl hunting. The deer and turkey hunting on this property should not be overlooked either. Multiple Pope and Young class bucks have been harvested off this property and the surrounding acreage over the years. While photographing the property, I picked up a really nice shed antler from a buck that made it through last year. There are multiple fields that can be planted as food plots for wildlife on the property. If you are interested in taking a look at this operation, give us a call to schedule your private showing!
