Farmer seeking land Responsible , experienced grazer looking for land to graze . We use soil building , regenerative practices and have improved land through grazing . I have raised cattle since I was young , and want to pass on my knowledge and the great benefits of agriculture to my children . I can install permanent fencing if a long term lease is in place .
Farmer seeking land I am looking to lease a fertile piece of land like 2 acres where African cultural vegetables can grow . I am doing this for business and also to assist my community such as Maryland food bank and poor families that cannot afford organic vegetables . Access to water is preferred . Willing to start in this spring 2022 . 7 years of experience .
Farmer seeking land We are looking for a suitable land , preferably 2 acres or more to grow indigenous African vegetables . Our farming supports the food pantry program and are exploring the possibility of scaling up to include a CSA model in the coming seasons . We have a full-time experienced farm manager and some assistants to manage everyday activities . Access to water is strongly preferred and a deer fence will be great . Start time can be immediate or later .
Farmer seeking land Compost Crew is looking to partner with farms to divert food scraps from the local community and make compost to improve crop yields . We are interested in leasing or buying at least a half acre of land for our composting program . Access to electric and water , a skid steer , and asphalt or concrete pad is a big plus .
