17103 US Hwy 84/64, Tierra Amarilla, NM 87575

Beautiful working farm in Northern New Mexico, bordered by the Brazos River, with 360 degree views. The property is 13.75 acres, with 13.25 acre-ft of water rights. Irrigation water is provided by a community ditch. There is also a domestic water line to the property allowing for the possibility of an owner s home to be built onsite. The property has an innovative setup for water utilization. Most of the irrigation water is diverted towards productive hay fields. Another part is fed into a 100,000 gallon in-ground sand-bed filter; with a permanent permit from the state of New Mexico. The filtered water is pumped into two 5000 gallon above-ground tanks. The final stages of purification consist of mechanical filtration and UV light. The current owner is certified to sell fresh produce to the public and the required filtration systems are in place for compliance. Potable quality water is used for growing vegetables (both soil-grown and hydroponic production). Two commercial scale hoop houses support several methods of growing fresh vegetables including soil-based and hydroponic cultivation. Several outside growing areas are used for a wide range of other crops such as flowers and vegetables. The bulk of the irrigation water is fed via underground pipes to a gated pipe system that waters the hay fields. The farm currently produces a variety of vegetables and hay. The produce is sold at a permanent farm stand on the property and at farmers markets. The farm stand has a walk-in cooler for storing produce as well as tables and racks for supplies and displays. The farm is completely self-sufficient in its energy requirements using solar generated power, so there are no utility bills to contend with. The solar infrastructure powers all farm operations, including irrigation, lighting, AC, farm appliances, and more. The advantageous location of the farm on a major US highway has the potential for exciting expansion opportunities beyond the established customer base. The property taxes are low, allowing for a better return on investment. This is an exciting opportunity for a discerning farmer/homesteader/business-person to grow a dream agricultural business.
