B.C. Land Matching Program British Columbia Central & Northern BC Land

LAND OPPORTUNITY: 1,200 acres of fertile farmland, with house – Salmon Valley, BC

We always have new land opportunities coming into our inventory, some of which aren’t on our blog yet! Get in touch with a Land Matcher at bclmp@youngagrarians.org to learn about the latest opportunities and to access free B.C. Land Matching Program services in your region.

ABOUT THE LAND

Located in the Salmon Valley area near Prince George, this property offers a three-bedroom house, barns, and 700 acres of arable farmland with some perimeter fencing.

The property offers ample, rich topsoil, with recent soil tests indicating good fertility in all fields. The land is mostly flat and cleared, and sufficient water is available from a high-producing well.

The landholders, who live off the property, are currently haying 500 acres of land at this location. However, for the right fit, they would be open to offering this area, making 1,200 acres of land available for an incoming farmer.

ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY

This is a great opportunity for a rancher or a farmer interested in livestock and hay. The excellent soils and abundant water could also support mixed production for vegetables or other crops.

The landholders are flexible and open to a variety of production types, and they are also open to the construction of farm infrastructure, such as greenhouses, on the property. They would be willing to lease either a small portion of the land or the entire property, with the option to rent the three-bedroom home as well.

The landholders would love to explore a long-term agreement with a farmer who has the skills, capital, and commitment required to build a sustainable and productive farm.

ABOUT THE IDEAL CANDIDATE

The ideal candidate will be a professional and experienced farmer who can provide a well-prepared business plan, show long-term commitment and effectively manage the property. The incoming farmer should also be able to bring the equipment and tools that they will need to build and grow their farm business.

A perfect opportunity for a farmer who has the vision and work ethic necessary to bring their farming dream to life!
