For Lease: About 9 acres in Benton County, 20 miles NW of Corvallis


Description

Beautiful land, 13 acres total, excellent soil; water rights to the Luckiamute River; we’d love to see it farmed productively!!!

You’d have access to our tractor with front loader, tiller, and mower; John has a lot of knowledge about this tractor and is happy to share.

No chemicals used on almost all of the property for over 30 years.  2 acres are fenced.

Part of our large shop would be available for your use. (Unfortunately, no housing besides ours is currently on the property.)

We would like some cash as part of the lease but are open to quite a bit of trade. We love this beautiful land and would love to see it farmed productively!


Owner’s Short Term Vision for the Property

We would love to lease much of this property to a farmer who will farm it organically and could provide some mentorship and help.

We are open to the possibility of a partnership in constructing housing on the second floor of our barn, and very long term, may transition out of our home.
