We have more land opportunities than what is listed here! Get in touch with a Land Matcher at land@youngagrarians.org to access our full land inventory and B.C. Land Matching Program support in your region.

ABOUT THE LAND

This unique farming opportunity is available on 17 acres of lush and beautiful wet soil cropland. The available land sits on 33 acres of ALR property near Old Riverside Park in Abbotsford. All 33 acres are available for lease. Besides the wet soil cropland, the remainder of the property is hilly and partially forested, with a few acres of flat, drier, arable land. The land has been resting and is ready for a new project.

This opportunity offers electricity, and both a well and municipal water are available. A stream also runs through the lower portion of the property. The soil has been recently tested and an agrologist report is available if interested.

ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY

This land is seeking a farmer interested in wet soil agriculture – water-loving crops such as rice, watercress, or asparagus. The landholder lives on the property and is keen to support a new farming project. They may be open to having a tiny home on the property if housing is desired. The landholder would like the farmer to help them get farm status.
