CASH CROPS
In addition to growing enough feed to meet the herd's needs, we grow and sell hay, soybeans, and corn. We also purchase and bale straw from nearby farms for our own use, as well as for re-sale.
WILD GAME BUTCHER BUSINESS
We've provided on-site seasonal (fall) wild game butchering services to local hunters since 2005 and have enjoyed an excellent reputation as one of the most sought after wild game butchers in the Ottawa Valley. This business and its assets are also available for sale.
PROXIMITY TO CANADA'S CAPITAL CITY ~ POTENTIAL BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES
As we're located a mere 20 minutes from Ottawa, home of hundreds of thousands of federal government employees, as well as those employed in the high-tech industry, the potential sales market rarely, if ever, contracts. If you or members of your family have an entrepreneurial spirit, the possibilities of establishing and expanding farm-gate or other sales are endless.
POSSIBLE SEVERANCES
There's a dirt road between the main property consisting of 328 acres and 89 acres, providing a natural severance. It may also be possible to sever down the lot line on the main property, maintaining 194 acres (all tillable) with the farm, freeing up the remaining 136 acres in that parcel to sell*.
*A word to the wise, once farmland in this area is sold, it's rarely, if ever, recoverable.
