Once in a lifetime opportunity to own 160 acre picturesque farm situated in the Storrs hills of eastern Connecticut. Farm is currently active, around 60 acres being used for hay production, 5 acres being used for pick your own berries and three acres for landscape plantings. Remaining acreage is managed woodlands that can support logging. Clearing operations were recently started on roughly 20 additional acres to expand farming acreage. Acreage devoted to berries and landscape plantings has underground irrigation which is connected to a pump house supplied by two dedicated year round supply farm ponds. The farm has three barns, a large recently built hay barn that can store up to 10,000 bales of hay, a medium size workshop barn for farm repair work and one large barn with silo that currently houses a farm store. The farm store is active and has required food licenses as required by local health department regulations. Also situated on the farm are a large greenhouse with dedicated irrigation and two seasonal high tunnels. The State of Connecticut has acquired the development rights for the farm, which does allow for the development of two farm related house lots to be built on the farm property, this is a plus since it supports family farming and farm stewardship. There are dedicated private farm roads which cross the property and allow access to all farm fields. There are many opportunities associated with this property for the right buyer of this farm
