Farm currently operates as a grass-fed beef and pastured poultry business and has been farmed sustainably with no chemicals for at least 8 years.  This is CLEAN land—even the catfish in the pond tested below detectable levels for lead and mercury.   Meat produced on the farm sells out every year and customer lists are available if Buyer wants to continue farming operation for extra income.  There is room for significant expansion of the meat business. 

Beautiful High Quality Warm Water Fishing stream (House Run) borders southern edge of property and largest portion of farm is situated across from PA State Game Lands. There are several acres of rich bottom land for crops, home vegetable gardens or summer sweet corn.  

Family room

Approximately 1-acre pond has dock, rowboat and excellent fishing (catfish, perch, crappy, bass).  Stone retaining wall borders back of the house, with kitchen herb garden, and orchard behind.   Two vegetable gardens, one with established asparagus bed.

Approximately half the farm is under fencing with the remainder left in mixed hardwoods, (cherry, black walnut, locust, maple, poplar and more) and partially open savannah that could be cleared for more pasture.  Total acreage is 44.89 acres.  West Greene School District.  Lovely hikes all over the property, with picnics down by the stream and evening dinners by the pond. 

Beautiful sun and moon rises over the ridge.
