Description of the Country Home
|
Teal Farm has been reconfigured for sale as Teal Farm Center. Seller-Foundation For A Sustainable Future has decided to retain the majority of Teal Farms land to further the Foundations conservation-based mission. Foundation founder and executive director, Melissa Hoffman, recognizes that well-stewarded properties this size are rare, and that parcel-fragmentation due to financial pressures is namely to blame. It was a tremendous effort to put the almost 1,300-acre Farm back together, and it seems a shame to break it up, especially when it could be used to advance the Foundations goals of regenerative land use and ecological integrity, said Hoffman of her recent decision to reconfigure what her Foundation was selling. Keeping the majority of the property will allow the Foundation to continue to work on implementing the ideas expressed in the Master Plan created by Ben Falk of Whole Systems Design. It took awhile to figure this out, but after exploring options with Shawn we realized the new offering configuration was a win-win for all.
Not only will the new owner of Teal Farm Center live within the Foundations massive holding, enjoying what is arguably the premier view site of the entire Farm, but they will be given use and access opportunities to consider, that are commensurate with the Foundations mission, as part of their purchase of the Farm Center. Access to productive farm and forest land is cost-prohibitive these days. Ideally, says Hoffman, I would like all the creative work the Foundation has done on integrated food-energy-building systems design and implementation to be accessible to more people, so that Teal can become a viable educational resource.
Depending on who the new owner of Teal Farm Center is, and what their needs and goals are, part of the beauty of only offering the building complex and orchard installation is to keep acquisition costs as low as possible, while availing the new owner of all the benefits of living next to 20,000-acre Camels Hump State Park within a private 1,250+/- acre watershed, parts of which can be made available to them in ways that benefit their use of the Farm Center at below-market costs, says Hoffman.
One could not create Teal Farm Center as it is, where it is, for less than the ask price. To learn more, please visit Earth Asset's website. |
