Apple farming with a view! This magnificent property consists of 2 parcels totaling 151 acres of agricultural land. 79 acres are planted in Honeycrisp, Gala and Fuji apples. 37 acres are irrigated cropland, 28 acres are pasture and 7 acres are site land. The property has been cultivated for commercial apple production. The trees are just coming to maturity and are expected to see a significant crop in coming years. The property is situated on a peninsula that sits high above the valley floor. An idyllic location to combat seasonal climate shifts. For ease of harvest and cultivation, the farm was planted in 400' rows, facing southwest, to soak up the summer sun. An extensive, state of the art, drip irrigation system is in place, with underground main lines to each block of land. The owner built a 12 acre foot, lined, reservoir on the East end of the property for water storage. The property has 2 building envelopes for a private residence. Pick one of the two locations to build your dream home. Overlook Fruitgrowers Reservoir (aka: Hart's Basin) and watch the Sandhill cranes migrate. 26% of the world's population of Greater Sandhill Cranes stop at this site during their spring migration from central New Mexico. Look up to see non-stop views of the Grand Mesa, North America's largest flat top mesa.
