Incubator Farm Opportunity in Virginia

Tweet

Incubator Farm Opportunity: Bottle Tree Farm LLC, an 18+ acre farm on the edge of Waverly Virginia, 23890, is looking to assist young and beginning farmers to establish their own business growing and selling seasonal produce and related agricultural products.  My wife and I are in search of a few (2-4+) qualified candidates to participate in our Farmer Incubator Program.

The two of us make use of only a small fraction of the farm and have always wanted to further opportunities for young and beginning farmers.  To that end, we are willing to share our investment in land, equipment and other resources with a small number of prospects that have either classroom and/or field experience and who are looking to start their own farming related business.

We are looking for sustainable farmers willing to invest in the soil and land.  Growing seasonal produce crops for direct to consumer marketing is likely the best use of this land.  Livestock and fowl are logical extensions to add to the rotation of crops, for those willing to take on this responsibility.

Our Farm is conveniently located on US460 within 50-60 miles of 3 major metropolitan centers; 1) Richmond, Petersburg, Hopewell; 2) Norfolk, Portsmouth, Virginia Beach and 3) Williamsburg, Newport News, Hampton.  Great marketing opportunities and potential exist for those willing to hustle.

There is a cottage on the farm and other affordable housing available nearby.

If interested in the incubator farm opportunity, please send letter of introduction to Bob Richardson: info@bottletreefarm.com

Include summary of experience and resources you have and the type of business you are hoping to establish as well as any initial questions that you may have.

Thank you for your interest in this opportunity.
