Whitetail Properties Real Estate is proud to offer this affordable WRP farm near Whiting. This property has been enrolled in the Wetlands Reserve Program for approximately 10 years. The vegetation is thick, and the first successional growth of softwood trees and shrubs are starting to take over providing even more cover and habitat for pheasants and whitetail deer. This farm also has two shallow water ponds on either side of the McCandless Cleghorn drainage that are ideal spots to decoy in mallards or any other migrating ducks in the fall. This property is located right on the edge of the Mississippi and Central flyways so there’s always going to be waterfowl in the area. WRP farms are the most affordable recreational properties you can own. For more information about this farm or to schedule a private showing of this property, call the listing agent today. Showings by appointment only.
