Description of Property:
Various sites in the Fair Oaks/Orangevale and surrounding areas. 2 sites available now. One
roughly 1/4 acre. Second is aprox. 1 acre with
possibility for more. There are other sites being discussed. Soils vary. Good exposure. Various former uses; Other sites are strictly for harvesting tree crops. Would like to work others interested in farming/harvesting these sites.
Additional Notes:
I grew up in this area. Lots of sites available.
Used to have a lot of farming here. There are also lots of orchards who are owned by elderly who can not harvest them. Oranges, grapefruit, meyer lemons and persimmons are ready to harvest. I harvest, leave what's needed for family and distribute their rest to locals in need. Remainder can be sold wholesale. Have agreement with local business to sell at their store. Folks in Fair Oaks are clamoring for local produce. Also a fair amount of Weston Price
members. Will work on photos. Do not currently have camera.
