North Farm -161 Acres -
The parcel offers easterly access off a hard surface road, which also is favorable for a perfect access wind with the prevailing westerly winds. The properties topography lays out for top ridge access with the heart of the property lying to the South and west of the access point. The North property Line runs along the top ridge access allowing for minimal disturbance to the Southern fingers and bedding points. The mature hardwood ridges encase 45.73 acres of FSA tillable. The timber and field edges naturally create multiple stand and food plot locations by forming multiple inside corners and coves. As it is known, Whitetails are edge dwelling creatures, and this farm offers over 2+ miles of field edge and edge habitat. Favorable edge habitat is the linchpin for healthy deer and turkey populations a like. From a hunting perspective, the amount of edge can be difficult to hunt at times but placing a few strategic food plots near the easier accessed inside corners and coves or near some of the South facing bedding points, could change the way that this farm hunts in a big way. The fingers of mature hardwood timber are accompanied by multiple rock outcroppings and ditches that collect natural deer movement and form excellent rut funnels. One of our first thoughts about this farm was that there was plenty of bedding opportunity with all the southerly facing ridges, but key features that this farm possess is the natural security and escape cover that is provided to the deer specifically in the far west tillable field in the Southwest portion of that tillable. Just to the east of that SW tillable portion, you will find a large timbered draw (Finger) that has a well-used southerly facing bedding points. It is within this draw, stands a large grove of mature Red Oak that could attribute to some timber value if desired or provide a great mast crop for natural browse for deer and turkey. The South portion of the 161 acres has terrain consisting of rolling mature hardwood timbered ridges, wetlands, and a hint of tenured pasture. The timbered finger draws, and open habitat breaks create a plethora of bow and gun range set ups as well.
South Farm 212 Acres -
Approx 212 acres of prime Monroe County farm ground. Located between Elroy and Kendall, this farm consists of approx. 91 acres tillable. The farm lane off of Nutmeg Rd provides good access for large equipment. For recreation, there is just over 31 acres of timber that offers excellent deer and turkey hunting. It's connected to great wildlife habitat to both the east and north, so deer frequent the property regularly. This could easily be leased out for hunting for additional annual income opportunity. The balance of the property consists of pasture and wetland near the road, adding to the overall functionality of the farm, as well as offering some habitat diversity. Whether you are an investment-minded deer hunter or simply want to add to your tillable portfolio, this farm is ideal!
